The Aegean resort town of Bodrum in southwestern Turkey’s Muğla province was pounded with heavy rains that flooded many houses and businesses and left the town underwater on Dec. 16.

The heavy rain was effective especially in Bodrum town center and the neighborhoods of Gümbet, Bitez, Ortakent, Konacık, Yalıkaca, and Gündoğan.

A lightning struck two houses in the Gündoğan neighborhood, damaging house items inside, whereas the wall of another house collapsed due to flash waters.
