As evening rain began to take its toll in Rize, a landslide unfolded in Bayırcık village, located in the Ardeşen district. A shop’s security camera recorded the harrowing moment when the ground gave way, dragging a truck with it. Remarkably, the driver emerged from the vehicle unharmed, without any visible injuries. Additionally, just 30 seconds before the landslide, a pickup truck with passengers narrowly escaped being buried beneath the shifting earth.

Türkiye’s Millennia-Old Heritage: Cağ Kebab Traced Back to Kipchaks
The long-debated origin of cağ kebab, claimed by both Erzurum and Artvin, has been traced back a thousand years to the Kipchak Turks, according to new research.
Artvin Çoruh University professor Hüdayi Ercoşkun stated that both cities lie in the region once inhabited by the Kipchaks, who brought the tradition of roasting meat on skewers from Central Asia. “Cağ kebab is not just a regional dish; it’s a cultural memory dating back to the Kipchaks,” he said.
Erzurum holds a geographical indication for “Oltu cağ kebabı,” while Artvin registered “Yusufeli cağ döner.” Today, both regions preserve this thousand-year-old culinary heritage, which has spread nationwide as a symbol of Türkiye’s rich gastronomic culture
