Turkey mine explosion kills 40 and leaves many more trapped – BBC News


Forty people are thought to have died following an explosion in a coal mine in northern Turkey, the country’s interior minister has said.

Suleyman Soylu said 58 people had been rescued from the mine and over a dozen remained trapped.

Around 110 people were in the mine at the time of the blast on Friday – almost half of them at over 300 metres deep.

Emergency crews worked through the night, digging through rock to try to reach more survivors.
