Officials say at least five people have been killed and three people are missing after heavy rains hit Turkey’s northeastern Black Sea coast, triggering floods and landslides.
The heavy downpour struck the tea-growing province of Rize late on Wednesday, sweeping away cars and causing a number of houses to collapse.
A woman, her husband and another man were found dead amid the debris of a three-story house that collapsed in a mudslide.
The victims also included the head administrator of a nearby village who was killed after being swept away by the raging waters.
