At least nine people die and more than 1,750 homes and businesses affected in Istanbul

“This is the most extreme phenomenon in terms of the maximum amount of rain in a 24-hour period since records began in the country,” Greece’s climate crisis and civil protection minister, Vassilis Kikilias, said after an emergency cabinet meeting.
