Forty people are now thought to have died following an explosion in a coal mine in northern Turkey.
Suleyman Soylu earlier said 58 people had been rescued from the mine and over a dozen remained trapped.
Around 110 people were in the mine at the time of the blast on Friday, almost half of them at over 300 metres deep.
Emergency crews worked through the night, digging through rock to try to reach more survivors.
Video footage shows miners emerging blackened and bleary-eyed accompanied by rescuers at the facility in Amasra, on the Black Sea coast.
