Staveniskom v juhotureckej prímorskej provincii Antalya sa v utorok (27. 10.) prehnala silná búrka sprevádzaná tornádom, ktoré zdevastovalo obytný kontajner s robotníkmi vo vnútri. Štyria z nich neprežili. Informovala o tom agentúra AP.
Piaty robotník v inom obytnom kontajneri utrpel nešpecifikované zranenia a jeho stav nie je známy. K nešťastiu došlo v okrese Kepez pri meste Antalya. Tri obete boli sýrskymi občanmi.
🌪️ Tornado strikes Antalya, Turkey: Four dead, tower crane toppled A powerful tornado tore through a construction site in the Fevzi Çakmak neighborhood, ripping apart two residential containers housing construction workers. Five workers were thrown out of the containers. Two died at the scene, while two others later died in hospital. The fifth worker suffered minor injuries. The tornado also toppled a massive tower crane, while nearby buildings were largely unaffected. According to Antalya’s governor, the destructive tornado only affected the construction site, with no reports of similar incidents elsewhere in the city. https://t.co/GqyJKB5PYS

Turecká meteorologická služba krátko pred sformovaním tornáda vydala výstrahu pred intenzívnymi dažďami. Silný vietor na stavenisku tiež zvalil žeriav. Silným dažďom sa nevyhlo ani najväčšie turecké mesto Istanbul, kde okrem iného skomplikovali dopravu.
V iných častiach Kepezu ani Antalye, ktorá bude budúci mesiac hostiť klimatickú konferenciu COP31, škody nehlásili.
