Turkish authorities say at least 23 people have died and 11 others are in critical condition after a tour bus tipped over, fell 15 meters (50 feet) down a cliff and then hit a car on a serpentine mountain road.

The passengers mostly women and children were travelling to a Mother's Day celebration.

Mother's Day falls today, Sunday May 14 in Turkey but this year it will be met with mourning in the homes of those killed in this tragic crash, the cause of which is still unknown.

Deputy governor of Mugla province, Kamil Koten, told Turkey's state-run Anadolu news agency that the driver is among the dead and most of those killed were women.

Kudos to them for covering the dead bodies very well before taking picture. Unlike here in Nigeria when such happens, dead bodies will be advertised as if it's for sale.

RIP to the dead. May God comfort the families involved
