Antakya-İskenderun Highway Closed From Mud

Antakya- İskenderun Highway Closed from Slime: While the heavy downpour was effective in Hatay, the Antakya-İskenderun highway, which was covered with slime brought by the flood waters coming from the Amanos Mountains, was closed to traffic.
While the heavy downpour was effective in Hatay, the Antakya-İskenderun highway, which was covered with the slime brought by the flood waters from the Amanos Mountains, was closed to traffic. Those trapped in the slime vehicles were rescued by the Hatay Metropolitan Municipality Fire Brigade Team and Hatay AFAD teams.
With the effect of the downpour, which has been effective in Hatay last night, at the crossroads of Bakras Mahallesi on the 25th kilometer of the Antakya-İskenderun highway, the muds carried by the flood waters from the Amanos Mountains closed the transportation. At the time, three passers-by were stuck in the mud, while the trapped vehicles were saved by the Metropolitan Firefighters, AFAD teams and farmers passing by the tractor.
Vehicles slowed into the slime became unusable. During the 2 hour, transportation on the Antakya-Iskenderun roadway was provided one way and long vehicle queues were formed. While the studies are in progress, transportation on the road has been started to be controlled in two ways.
