At least 33 people are dead and 50 injured in an avalanche in eastern Turkey.
Many of the victims were rescuers working to free children from an earlier snowslide. Officials say that more people are still trapped under the snow.

Hot Takes:
- You have to be very brave to walk into an avalanche-prone area to rescue people from an avalanche.
- Of all the ways to go, I really would not want to be trapped under 10 feet of snow.
- I can’t imagine looking up and seeing a wall of snow rushing right at me.
