ISTANBUL (Kyodo) — A Japanese man has died at a local hospital in western Turkey following a bus accident last week, Japan’s embassy said Friday, though the cause of death remains undisclosed.
The man in his 80s died on Thursday, after the bus carrying 21 Japanese tourists overturned on Oct. 17, sending several injured passengers to the hospital, according to local authorities.
The bus was said to have slipped and overturned on a road in Afyonkarahisar Province while traveling from the UNESCO World Heritage site of Pamukkale in western Turkey to the central city of Konya.
