Car falls into monster 8 metre wide sinkhole killing 6 people, 5 from the same family




Six people including two children died after their car fell into a huge hole in the middle of a main road near the breakaway Crimean capital of Simferopol.

WARNING: Video contains distressing images.

A video shows the mangled wreckage at the bottom of the huge hole and children crying for help among the debris. It’s clear there was no way driver Ibrail Eskandarov could have avoided the huge hole when it appeared in front of his vehicle at night.

Mr Eskandarov, 34, had slammed on the brakes but crashed into the hole together with his wife Eskandarova, 33, and twins Asan and Muslim, 3, and Aliye, 16.

Also killed was their friend Salimova Asiye, 37.

Both of her children who were also in the car - Serim, just 12 months old, and Levida, 12 - were hospitalised with serious injuries. Their condition was described as critical.
