ISTANBUL: A seven-story apartment building in Turkiye’s northwestern city of Gebze collapsed early Wednesday, trapping a family of five under the rubble and killing four of them. State-run TRT news channel identified those who died as members of the Bilir family: father Levent, 43, mother Emine, 37, daughter Hayrunnisa, 14, and son Muhammed Emir, 12. Rescue personnel saved the eldest sibling, 18-year-old Dilara Bilir, and recovered the bodies of the younger children by Wednesday evening, but the search for the parents continued.
