Bridge collapses after heavy rainfall in Turkey

STORY: Footage from the ground showed a bridge over the Soke Stream in Inebolu collapsing and being washed away.

Overflowing water damaged surrounding residential areas as the ground floors of nearby houses were submerged.

The Disaster and Emergency Management Presidency announced 235 citizens were evacuated from three provinces where major flooding occurred.

Local authorities warned residents not to leave their houses for the next couple of days.
