Turkey battled disaster on two fronts on Saturday with eight people dying when a fire-fighting aircraft crashed and rescuers racing to find survivors of flash floods in the north that have killed at least 55.

Scientists believe such natural disasters are becoming more intense and frequent because of global warming caused by polluting emissions. In Moscow, the defence ministry said five Russian servicemen and three Turkish citizens were on board the Russian Be-200 plane that went down around 1330 GMT. The latest official death toll published Saturday by AFAD stood at 55, with nine other people in hospital.
