In Berlin, a 34-year-old man rescued a six-year-old girl after she fell from a third-floor window in the Neukölln district. The man caught the child before she hit the ground, resulting in only minor injuries. Authorities are investigating the incident because no responsible adult was present in the apartment, which also contained two other young children.

In Istanbul, a seven-story building in the Maltepe district partially collapsed, with the first three floors falling. Emergency teams have rescued five people from the rubble, but at least seven others, including a six-year-old child, remain trapped. Rescuers have established contact with the child but face difficulties reaching them due to the risk of further collapse. Nearby buildings have been evacuated as search and rescue operations continue.
