Mayor Hasan Unver told NTV television that the dome of the mosque being built in an industrial area of central Turkish town of Acigol tumbled down during construction, trapping 10 workers under a pile of iron.

He says nine of the workers were rescued with injuries while the other was pulled out dead.

State-run TRT television showed images of rescuers, some carrying a bright orange stretcher, scrambling to rescue one trapped worker amid a pile of rubble and iron rods.

The cause of the accident was under investigation.
