Rescue teams have saved three individuals and transported them to the hospital.

On Saturday, rescuers recovered the bodies of two people from the rubble of a collapsed residential building in the Turkish city of Konya. Three others were successfully rescued and hospitalized, according to local media reports.

Turkish Interior Minister Ali Yerlikaya confirmed that the victims were a Syrian couple. The exact cause of the four-story building’s collapse remains unknown. “If this was due to an error, negligence, or something else, we will find out together,” the minister told reporters.

Authorities have launched an investigation into the incident and have detained four individuals who were reportedly working at a restaurant located on the building’s ground floor.

Earlier this week, on Tuesday, a fire at the Grand Kartal Hotel in the ski resort of Bolu province in northwestern Turkey claimed the lives of 78 people. The cause of the fire is still under investigation, but negligence is suspected. Survivors have pointed to a lack of adequate safety measures.
