Dense fog, which was effective in the early hours of the morning in Istanbul, significantly reduced visibility across the city.
The fog, which intensified especially around the Bosphorus, also negatively affected maritime transport.
BOSPHORUS TRAFFIC TEMPORARILY SUSPENDED
Due to the significant decrease in visibility in some areas, ship traffic in the Bosphorus was suspended in both directions.
Authorities announced that the measure was implemented to ensure safety in maritime transport.
BRIDGE SILHOUETTE EMERGED WITH THE FOG
With the daylight filtering through the fog clouds, the silhouette of the 15 July Martyrs Bridge became distinct.
The scenery created during sunrise gave the city's skyline a different appearance.
