Residential building in Turkey collapses – two dead
Two people have died in the collapse of a four-storey residential building in Turkey. Three other people were injured, according to Interior Minister Ali Yerlikaya. The dead were a young couple.
The building in the province of Konya collapsed on Friday evening. The cause is still unclear, said the Turkish Interior Minister. Investigations had been initiated. One young couple died and three other people were injured.
Rescue work in the rubble has already been completed. Four people have been arrested, including the owners of the house.
The incident once again raises questions about building safety in Turkey. It was only on Thursday night that 78 people died in a fire at a ski hotel in the north-western province of Bolu. Fire safety was allegedly neglected.
Experts also blame building fabric defects, among other things, for the more than 50,000 official deaths caused by the earthquakes in 2023.
