Ancient city of Hasankeyf to be flooded by hydroelectric dam project

Tourists balk at destruction in Hasankeyf, an ancient city on the banks of Tigris River in southeast Turkey, will soon be flooded by the Ilisu Dam. Picture here, construction crews destroy limestone cliffs dotted with neolithic caves and pulverize a world heritage site to prep the area for submerging later this summer. Photo taken 22 March 2018.
