(CNN) -- Two days after a deadly 7.2-magnitude earthquake hit eastern Turkey, a 2-week-old girl and her mother were rescued, giving hope to the numerous rescue workers sifting through the rubble.

Sunday's devastating quake was the most powerful to hit Turkey in more than a decade. At least 432 people have died, and more than 1,300 are injured, according to the Turkish Disaster and Emergency Relief Agency. More than 2,000 buildings are in ruins.
