ISKENDERUN, Turkey (Reuters) – A large fire burned and a plume of black smoke drifted high into the air on Monday above Turkey’s southern Iskenderun port, in the Mediterranean Sea-side province of Hatay, according to Reuters witnesses and footage.
The region was hit by two major earthquakes earlier in the day, leaving widespread damage and loss of life. It was not immediately clear what was burning.
