Two persons were killed and 23 others injured on Tuesday when a tent in a mosque in Istanbul collapsed under the weight of snow, local media reported.
The incident occurred during a funeral prayer at the mosque in Istanbul's district of Bakirkoy, and Mayor Bulent Kerimoglu confirmed the casualties.
