At least 66 people have died in a fire at a popular ski resort in Turkiye.
Panicked guests have jumped to their deaths as it was engulfed in flames.
It’s happened in Kartalkaya, which is in the Koroglu Mountains in the northwest.
The blaze engulfed a 12-storey hotel with wooden cladding.
At least 51 people have been injured, some in a critical condition.
The fire started in the kitchen of the hotel – which backs onto a cliff, making it a difficult for firefighters to get to.
