While all of Turkey talks about İmamoğlu, a post about Erdoğan comes from the Directorate of Communications

Following the detention of Istanbul Metropolitan Municipality Mayor Ekrem İmamoğlu this morning, protests have gained momentum nationwide. In Istanbul, CHP deputies began a march from the Parliament building toward the CHP Headquarters.

POLICE INTERVENTION ON VATAN AVENUE

Vatan Avenue was closed by order of the Istanbul Governor's Office, but Istanbul University students and other crowds broke through police barricades and continued their march toward Saraçhane. Similar protests were held in Muğla, but police intervened in these demonstrations with tear gas.

MAJOR VOLATILITY IN EXCHANGE RATES

As the protests continued, exchange rates hit new records. The Turkish lira fell to its lowest level in history.
