According to Health Minister Fahrettin Koca, a coal mine explosion in Turkey’s northern Bartin province on Friday claimed the lives of 28 people while rescue workers continued to look for anyone who may have become trapped underneath.
Koca also posted on Twitter that 11 of the 58 miners who had been rescued were still receiving medical care, but it was unclear how many others were still trapped because of the explosion that occurred when 110 people were working.
Initial evidence, according to the authorities, suggested that the explosion was brought on by firedamp, a word for the methane found in coal mines.
Reuters and local media footage indicated that the miners’ coworkers and family were waiting at the scene and in the medical facilities where the injured were being treated.
In Turkey’s biggest mining catastrophe in history, which occurred in the western town of Soma, 350 kilometres (217 miles) south of Istanbul, 301 employees perished in 2014.
