Russian tourists stole 35kg of food from an Antalya hotel in Turkey. The staff found a lot of the food already packed and demanded an explanation.

The incident was filmed by eyewitnesses. The video of the Russians quickly went viral on social media.

The Russians spent several days collecting food from the buffet and storing it in their room. There they wrapped everything in foil and put it in the fridge.

The tourists tried to take everything out of the hotel, but the staff stopped them because of the suspiciously large bags. The staff opened the luggage and found a pile of food.

The Russian tourist in the video began to make excuses. She claimed that she had been "given the food in a restaurant" and then called the food "a treat".

Since neither version worked, the Russian woman said she had taken a "snack on the train". "What are we supposed to eat on the train? Give us something to eat, we're leaving today," she said to the hotel staff.

The footage shows that the Turits took with them dried fruit, several kilograms of apples of different varieties, snacks, sweets, carbonated drinks, a bunch of sugar, many tea bags and much more. They even stole a piece of butter and many portioned sauces. They also found many sachets of shampoo and cosmetics in the bag.
