Floods kill 11 in Turkish earthquake-battered provinces

ANKARA, Turkey (AP) — Turkish officials and media reports say floods caused by torrential rains have killed at least 11 people in two provinces that were devastated by last month’s catastrophic earthquake. The flooding has increased the misery for thousands who were left homeless. At least five more people are reported missing. The provincial governor said that one person was killed on Wednesday in the town of Tut in southeastern Adiyaman province where surging waters swept away a container home where a group of earthquake survivors were living. Ten other people, including Syrian nationals, were killed by the floods in neighboring Sanliurfa province.
