TV footage showed residents and rescuers trying to lift debris to evacuate people believed to be trapped under the hotel in the provincial capital of Van.
Dogan says Wednesday's quake brought down buildings that were damaged in the earlier temblor. It was not known if anyone was trapped under debris.
Hundreds of aftershocks have rocked the region since the 7.2-magnitude earthquake hit the province on Oct. 23. Many residents had been living in tents, too afraid to return to their homes.
