Antakya residents report hygiene issues from uncleaned fire-damaged apartment
Residents in the Gülderen neighborhood of Antakya, Hatay, are reporting severe hygiene issues stemming from an apartment that has remained uncleaned for six months following an electrical fire.
The fire, which reportedly originated from an electrical outlet, caused significant damage to the unit and its contents. During the incident, neighbors assisted in rescuing an elderly woman who was trapped inside before firefighters arrived to extinguish the flames.
Neighbors, including Ümit Kuday, state that the homeowner lacks the financial means to clean the debris. Consequently, the abandoned burnt items and waste have led to persistent foul odors and insect infestations affecting the entire building. Additionally, residents report that rainwater leaks through the damaged windows, causing water to flood the apartment located directly below.
