Huge protests in Istanbul as mayor appears in court

from dc · host Salai Dawtcemsang

Thousands of demonstrators in Istanbul have taken to the streets to protest against the arrest of the city’s mayor, Ekrem Imamoglu. He is one of a number of opposition figures who have been taken into custody in recent days. We speak to one man who has been on the street calling for his release. Also in the programme: Israel carries out multiple airstrikes in southern Lebanon; how the dismantling of the US Department of Education might affect one mother and her two autistic daughters; and famed boxer George Foreman passes away at the age of 76.(Photo: Police officers in riot gear stand next to demonstrators during a protest against the detention of Istanbul Mayor Ekrem Imamoglu, in Istanbul, Turkey, 22nd March, 2025.
