In Bartın, landslides following heavy snowfall have negatively impacted village life.

Landslides occurred in the villages of Eseler, Eldeş, Güneyören, Kızıllar, and İlyasgeçidi in the Ulus district. Bartın Provincial Special Administration teams have begun work with heavy machinery in these areas.

As a result of the teams' efforts, the roads have been reopened. However, concerns continue for the residents of the villages, especially in Tüloğlu Neighborhood where soil movements have caused anxiety.
