Скачать или смотреть Turkey Floods: At Least 27 Dead Amid Heavy Rains in Northern Provinces

Search-and-rescue crews in northern Turkey recovered 10 more bodies overnight, raising the death toll from the severe floods and mudslides that struck the region to 27, officials said on Friday.

Dozens more people were believed to be missing.

Torrential rains pounded the Black Sea coastal provinces of Bartin, Kastamonu, Sinop and Samsun on Wednesday, causing the flooding that demolished homes and bridges and swept away cars.

More than 1,700 people were evacuated, including hundreds who were lifted to safety by helicopters, and many were being temporarily housed at student dormitories.

The Disaster and Emergency Management Presidency, or AFAD, said Friday that the latest bodies were found in worst-hit Kastamonu.

The floods contrast the more than 200 wildfires affecting southwest Turkey, causing the death of at least eight people and the evacuation of thousands of residents.
