Despite claims the fire had been extinguished, the BBC witnessed it still smouldering on Wednesday.
A huge fire at one of Turkey's main ports has been extinguished, the defence ministry has said.
Hundreds of shipping containers had caught fire, sending an enormous plume of dense, black smoke into the sky. The defence ministry said military helicopters and planes were used to help bring the fire under control when fighting the flames from the land and sea did not work.
