Two killed, 10 injured in Turkish mosque collapse
Two people were killed and 10 others injured when the dome of a mosque under construction collapsed in the western Turkish city of Usak on Saturday, a local official said. The cause of the collapse was not immediately known, Anatolia news agency quoted the city's deputy governor, Mustafa Guney, as saying. The casualties included the 83-year-old architect of the mosque, he added. In early February, an 11-storey apartment block collapsed in the central Turkish city of Konya, killing 92 people. Authorities blamed the tragedy on shoddy construction.
