The earthquake is not related to the War on Terror, but when Syrian refugees from that war prefer to go home rather than on to Europe, it seems to me that’s meaningful.

on February 6, with its impact also ripping through neighbouring Syria. Another quake followed in both countries hours later. Several strong earthquakes as well as thousands of aftershocks have occurred since then. The natural disaster has killed over 50,000 people in both countries.
Akar visited the quake-hit province of Hatay on the Syrian border on Tuesday, saying around 42,000 Syrians, who fled their country to Turkey in the last decade due to civil war, have returned to their homes since February 6. He denied claims that a new wave of Syrians have entered Turkey recently.

Akar elaborated that many Syrians returned to their country because they have lost their relatives or houses in the natural disaster.
Adana, Adiyaman (Semsur), Diyarbakir (Amed), Gaziantep(Dilok), Hatay, Kahramanmaras, Kilis, Malatya, Osmaniye, Sanliurfa (Riha), and Elazig provinces were affected by the tremors.

That's 968 more than there are in the White House, 400 more than in Versailles, and 325 more than Buckingham Palace, so you know who's really most important...earlier this month promised to construct nearly 200,000 permanent houses in quake-hit provinces, adding that the new buildings will not exceed four stories.
