Turkey Mine Search Ends with 301 Dead, Protesters Urge Ouster of Prime Minister

Rescue workers ended the search for survivors in the deadly mining accident that killed 301 workers in Soma, a town in western Turkey, after recovering the bodies of the last two missing miners Saturday morning

"Our efforts will be coming to an end," Turkish Energy Minister Taner Yildiz said, according to the Guardian.

Mourners gathered in the streets of Kadikoy, a district in Istanbul, on Friday to pay respect to the dead miners, and to publicly condemn the Turkish government's handling of the accident.
