Other accident
Two journalists from Turkey's Dogan News Agency died after being trapped under the rubble of a hotel in Van which collapsed during last Wednesday's earthquake in the east of the country.
Witnesses say 26-year-old Cem Emir and 58-year-old Sebahattin Yilmaz were transmitting a news story in the lobby of the Bayram hotel when the quake hit. They had been covering the aftermath of a 7.2 magnitude earthquake that struck the area of Van last month, killing more than 600 people.
