土耳其安塔利亚讯——当地官员称,周二清晨,一场龙卷风袭击了地中海沿岸省份安塔利亚的一个建筑工场,摧毁了一栋容纳工人的集装箱房,造成四名工人死亡。
ANTALYA, Turkey — A tornado hit a construction site in the Mediterranean coastal province of Antalya early on Tuesday, destroying a container housing workers and killing four of them, an official said.
安塔利亚州长胡卢西·萨欣告诉记者,另一名待在另一个集装箱房内的工人,在这场袭击安塔利亚凯佩兹区建筑工场的强风暴中受伤。
A fifth worker, who was staying inside another container, was injured in the powerful storm that struck the building site in Antalya’s Kepez district, Gov. Hulusi Sahin told reporters.
萨欣表示,遇难的三名工人是叙利亚国民。目前尚无关于受伤工人状况的即时信息。
Three of the workers who were killed were Syrian nationals, Sahin said. There was no immediate information on the condition of the injured worker.
萨欣说,这场龙卷风在该国气象机构发布大雨预警后不久袭来,还推翻了工场的一台起重机。
The tornado, which came shortly after the country’s weather agency warned of heavy rains, also knocked down a crane at the site, Sahin said.
凯佩兹区或安塔利亚其他地区均未受损——安塔利亚将于下个月举办联合国气候峰会COP31。
There was no damage in other parts of Kepez or Antalya — which will host the U.N. climate summit, COP31, next month.
安塔利亚及地中海沿岸其他地点时常遭遇龙卷风,但致命事件罕见。本月早些时候,土耳其最大城市伊斯坦布尔遭遇严重洪灾,造成八人死亡。
Antalya and other locations along the Mediterranean coast periodically experience tornadoes, although deadly incidents are rare. Earlier this month, Turkey’s largest city, Istanbul, was hit by severe floods that left eight people dead.
