One individual has been killed and 17 others wounded in the southern Turkish province of Antalya after a cable car cabin collided with a broken pole, according to the country’s health and justice ministers.
The injured people “were transferred to hospitals and their treatment continues”, Health Minister Fahrettin Koca said on the social media platform X on Saturday.
The accident happened late on Friday afternoon. One cable car in the Sarisu-Tunektepe system plummeted into a rocky area, Koca said.
After about 24 hours of rescue efforts, 184 people stranded in midair since the accident had been rescued, Turkey’s state-run Anadolu Agency said.
