In Istanbul, Turkey, rescuers are trying to free people from the rubble after an apartment building collapsed in one of the city’s districts, AP reports.
Rescuers manually cleared the rubble of a five-story building in the Kucukcekmece area of the European part of the city.
Seven people were pulled from the rubble, including two seriously injured, and two others remained under the building, Istanbul Governor Davut Gul said.
There were no reports of deaths, he added.
Gul’s office said the 36-year-old building collapsed at 8:40 a.m. The cause of the incident is still being investigated.
Let’s remember that yesterday a passenger bus was involved in an accident in southern Turkey: 10 people died and 39 were injured.
