Turkish fishermen in Black Sea closely watch navy boats

Turkish fisherman Şahin Afsüt fears the worst: Hitting a mine and "disappearing underwater in the blink of an eye."

Like many fishermen in Rumelifeneri, a village set on the rocks of the Bosphorus in northern Istanbul, Afsüt and his team remain in port since the discovery of a drifting mine last month in the Black Sea.
