A fire broke out at a Turkish nightclub killing at least 29 people, according to a minister, and inferno was initiated by 'illegal welding jobs'

According to a video shared by the Turkish Interior Minister on Wednesday, the fire in Istanbul was started by unlawful welding work. A worker welding a metal object with a blowtorch in the residential building when fires first erupt and thick smoke rises into the air. The fire broke out at midday on Tuesday at the Masquerade Club, a large nightclub housed in the basement of the 16-story apartment block in the Besiktas district's Gayrettepe neighborhood. 'The investigation [...] into the incident is still underway,' Turkey's Interior Minister Ali Yerlikaya said in a tweet on X.'

Inferno, a nightclub, killed 29 people: Fire ripped through a building in Turkey that was under renovations

Around 12:45 p.m. local time (09:45GMT) at the Masquerade nightclub, which had been closed and undergoing repairs, there was a catastrophic fire. The club is located on the ground and basement floors of a 16-story residential building in Istanbul's Besiktas district, and the fire quickly erupted into an inferno that engulfed the entire block. Shocking images from a television broadcast in Turkey showed how thick fires and a column of black smoke gushed from the 16-story building's upper-storey windows. The number of people who died in the fire (in Istanbul's Besiktas district) has increased to 29,' governor Davut Gul's office reported in a statement, resending the earlier toll. Following the Interior Ministry's announcement that an investigation had been launched, many people, including the club's CEOs, were arrested for questioning.

Following the loss of his first landslide in municipal elections just over a year after winning another presidential election, Turkish President Erdogan admits the country is at a 'turning point.'

Erdogan's AKP party suffered what analysts said was the worst loss in municipal elections this weekend, leading Erdogan (inset) to claim that his country was at a'turning point' one year after he was given yet another term. The main opposition party, the CHP, was wrestling away control of the key cities and Anatolian provinces that had been strongholds for Erdogan's Islamic conservative AKP. Istanbul's top urban centers, Ankara, Adana, Bursa, and Antalya were among those eligible for CHP mayors on Sunday, less than a year after the failure of a failed presidential campaign last May. Many observers blamed sky-high inflation of 67% and a gradual devaluation of the lira currency over the past year, with some of Erdogan's worst election loss since his party took power in 2002.
