St. Petersburg doctors who arrived in Turkey insisted on an additional examination of the child.

It is noted that doctors from Russia, who arrived to examine the girl on August 22, were able to access the patient only on August 23.

“Turkish colleagues referred to organizational difficulties in providing access to children's resuscitators from St. Petersburg to the victim,” the press service of the St. Petersburg administration quoted TASS as saying.

On August 18, a 12-year-old girl from Petersburg was dragged into a pipe at the bottom of a pool in Bodrum. She was hospitalized and was in serious condition.
