On September 12, 2026, Antalya experienced two separate significant fires. The first occurred in the Muratpaşa district, where a blaze in the Yenigöl neighborhood destroyed five warehouses and partially damaged a residence. The fire, which spread through waste materials, insulation, and plastic, caused millions of liras in damage but resulted in no reported fatalities. Ten firefighting teams from the Antalya Metropolitan Municipality Fire Department worked for approximately two hours to bring the flames under control. Local business owners reported significant financial losses, noting that the warehouses contained products for shopping malls, hotels, and insulation materials. Witnesses reported hearing explosions and shouting as the fire intensified, and authorities have launched an investigation to determine the cause. Later that day, a second fire broke out in the Kepez district at a car dealership in the Mehmet Akif Ersoy neighborhood. The flames spread to an apartment building located above the shop, damaging the structure and four nearby vehicles. While the cause remains under investigation, authorities are looking into allegations that the incident may ~~have been~~ be an act of arson involving a Molotov cocktail.
