Renovation Resumes on Heavily Damaged Buildings in Hatay’s Arsuz District, Sparking Controversy

Renovation works have resumed on a hotel in Hatay’s Arsuz district that had been reported to have severe structural damage. Following thorough assessments after the earthquake, it was found that the hotel’s columns and beams were substantially compromised, leading to fierce debates about its safety.

Alteration in Damage Reports

According to local sources, the severe damage report for the hotel, identified as A…, was revoked and downgraded to a “minor damage” status. With this reclassification, renovation works at the hotel have begun. The decision to undertake renovation on a building that had severe earthquake damage raises significant safety and health concerns.

‘Live Tomb’ Expression

Experts warn that guests staying at the hotel during renovations may face serious dangers, describing such situations as a “live tomb.” They emphasize that people will be unknowingly lodging in risky conditions. In light of these developments, a criminal complaint has been filed with the Hatay Public Prosecutor’s Office.

Future Actions

As further information and inspections are awaited on the matter, there is a strong call for prioritizing the safety of these buildings. Urgent measures need to be taken to demolish compromised structures and establish safe accommodation areas.
