Turkey Protests: Tensions in Istanbul soar as protests intensify
Turkey is witnessing its biggest wave of protests in over a decade. The streets of Istanbul, Izmir, and Ankara are filled with voices demanding justice. The reason? The detention of Istanbul’s mayor, Ekrem İmamoğlu, a man seen as President Erdoğan’s strongest political rival. İmamoğlu was taken into custody on March 19, a move his party—the Republican People’s Party, or CHP—calls politically motivated. His supporters see it as an attack on democracy itself. President Tayyip Erdoğan has issued a stern warning against the unrest, but that hasn’t deterred citizens in Istanbul, Izmir, Ankara, and beyond. In some cities, clashes erupted as police used water cannons to disperse the crowds.
