💨 Abstract

In Istanbul, hundreds of thousands of Turks protested against the jailing of Mayor Ekrem Imamoglu, President Tayyip Erdogan's main rival. Imamoglu was jailed pending trial on graft charges and hundreds of thousands of Turks across the country joined the protests. The opposition has criticized the case as politically motivated. Protests have been mostly peaceful but nearly 2,000 people have been detained.
