A bus with Russian and Belarusian citizens was involved in a terrible accident - the vehicle crashed into a concrete pole at high speed on the Alanya-Antalya highway in Turkey.

The Nehir Haber publication writes that the bus driver died in the hospital.
It is reported that the bus was carrying tourists from Alanya to the airport. The causes of the accident are still unknown, the police are investigating. It is quite possible that the driver of the vehicle dozed off at the wheel.
Turkish media published the moment of the bus collision with the pole
As specified by the Turkish media, the bus got into an accident at the entrance to the intersection of the Sorgun bus station bridge of the ring road of the city of Manavgat. At the moment, it is known that there are no fatalities among Russian citizens.
We should add that accidents involving tourist buses in Turkey happen with alarming frequency. In mid-January, there was a high-profile accident with nine fatalities. As in the case of today's accident, the bus, for an unknown reason (they say the driver lost control), collided with a barrier at the exit of a tunnel, after which it overturned.
