Istanbul hit by heavy storm

Turkey’s largest city was hit with a heavy storm early Tuesday, with trees and roofs toppled.


The storm began with light rain on Istanbul’s European districts including Sultangazi, Gaziosmanpasa, Bakırkoy, Bagcılar, Beyoglu, Kagithane, Bayrampasa and Esenler.


Strong winds toppled a tree outside the Florya train station but did not affect the services. The tree was removed by staff at the station. In Atakoy, a tree caused damage to a parked car when it fell onto the vehicle.
