Turkish opposition clashes with police amid massive protests demanding the release of Istanbul Mayor Ekrem Imamoglu. Lawmakers from the CHP scuffled with officers and dismantled barricades at a courthouse where Imamoglu awaited a ruling on corruption and terrorism charges. Authorities detained 320 protesters, using water cannons and tear gas to disperse crowds. The mayor denies the allegations, calling them politically motivated. As unrest spreads across major cities, opposition leaders urge citizens to defy bans and continue demonstrations against the government crackdown.
