Erodgan’s Dirty Politics RESURFACES As More CHP Leaders Arrested After Imamoglu’s Imprisonment

In a dramatic escalation of Turkey’s political crackdown, three more opposition mayors — Abdurrahman Tutdere of Adiyaman, Zeydan Karalar of Adana, and Muhittin Bocek of Antalya — have been arrested in sweeping early-morning raids. All are members of the main opposition party, CHP, which has faced a wave of detentions following Istanbul Mayor Ekrem Imamoglu’s imprisonment in March. The mayors are accused of bribery, bid-rigging, and organized crime, though exact charges remain undisclosed. The arrests come amid mounting criticism of President Erdogan’s government, with critics claiming the detentions are politically motivated attempts to weaken the CHP ahead of future elections. Imamoglu, now jailed, has since been nominated as the CHP’s presidential candidate, and his arrest sparked Turkey’s largest protests in a decade. Observers warn of further instability if the crackdown continues. #Turkey #Erdogan #CHP #Imamoglu #OppositionArrests #TurkeyPolitics #CHPMayors #Adana #Antalya #Adiyaman #EkremImamoglu #ProtestsInTurkey #DemocracyUnderThreat #TurkishElections #Authoritarianism #CorruptionCharges #PoliticalCrackdown #Turkey2028Elections #HumanRights #FreeImamoglu ~HT.410~ED.103~

Erdogan Backs Al-Sharaa’s Fight against Netanyahu | Syrian Civil War escalates | Turkey vs Israel

Turkey has officially entered the Syrian civil war after Damascus requested assistance to combat terror groups and stabilize the south. Ankara will provide military training, consultancy, and armoured vehicles to support Syrian forces. This comes amid escalating Druze-Bedouin violence in Sweida and Israeli airstrikes targeting Syrian military assets. Turkey’s move, framed as a push for regional stability, heightens fears of a broader confrontation with Israel. Ankara backs Syria’s sovereignty while accusing Israeli actions of destabilizing southern Syria and provoking wider conflict. #TurkeyInSyria #SyrianCivilWar #Erdogan #AlSharaa #IsraelVsTurkey #Israel #MiddleEastConflict #SyriaWarUpdate #TurkeyMilitarySupport #DruzeBedouinClashes #SyriaIsraelTensions #SweidaCrisis #DamascusAirstrikes #RegionalEscalation #BreakingNews #MiddleEastNews #SyriaCrisis #ErdoganVsNetanyahu #Geopolitics #UNAlert #TurkeySyriaAlliance #AnkaraStatement #IDFStrikes #ErdoganResponse #SyriaUnderFire #WarInSyria #TurkeyIsraelFaceOff Also Read Israel And Syria Agree To ceasefire: US Ambassador To Turkey :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/israel-and-syria-agree-to-ceasefire-us-ambassador-to-turkey-011-7805781.html?ref=DMDesc Airstrike Caught On Live TV: Israeli Missiles Hit Syrian Defence HQ In Damascus :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/airstrike-caught-on-live-tv-israeli-missiles-hit-syrian-defence-hq-in-damascus-7803237.html?ref=DMDesc Ceasefire Collapses In Sweida; Israel Responds With Strike On Syrian Army :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/ceasefire-collapses-in-sweida-israel-responds-with-strike-on-syrian-army-7803123.html?ref=DMDesc ~ED.194~HT.408~

Shocking videos from Syria’s Sweida province show Hay’at Tahrir al-Sham (HTS) militants executing Druze civilians in a surge of sectarian bloodshed. Victims, targeted for their faith, are seen kneeling with hands on their heads before being gunned down. Some videos even show HTS fighters burning bodies and celebrating the killings.

HAMAS REGAINS GAZA: Another IDF Soldier Killed In Gaza After Abu Obeida's 'Attrition War' Warning

An Israeli soldier, Staff Sgt. Amit Cohen, 19, from the Golani Brigade’s 13th Battalion, was killed in southern Gaza as IDF forces pushed deeper into Khan Younis. A preliminary probe revealed Cohen died from an Israeli munitions blast, highlighting the dangers of the ongoing ground offensive. Hamas’s military wing continues targeted attacks, vowing an attrition war if Israeli tanks advance further. Despite years of war, Hamas remains undefeated, with IDF morale weakening as more soldiers are lost, including five in a deadly IED attack on July 8. #IsraelGazaWar #IDF #Hamas #GazaConflict #MiddleEastCrisis #GolaniBrigade #KhanYounis #AttritionWar #AbuObeida #AlQassamBrigades #GazaBlast #IDFLosses #IsraeliForces #HamasResistance #GazaWarUpdates #DeirAlBalah #IEDAttack #WarCasualties #IsraeliSoldier #MilitaryConflict #IsraelHamasWar #GazaFighting #IsraelNews #PalestineNews #MiddleEastNews #GroundOffensive #WarInGaza #LatestFromGaza #IDFMorale #IDFDeaths #HamasUnyielding Also Read Israel And Syria Agree To ceasefire: US Ambassador To Turkey :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/israel-and-syria-agree-to-ceasefire-us-ambassador-to-turkey-011-7805781.html?ref=DMDesc ‘She Used Me for Money’: Israeli Father’s Struggle to See Daughters After Gokarna Rescue :: https://www.oneindia.com/bengaluru/she-used-me-for-money-israeli-father-s-struggle-to-see-daughters-after-gokarna-rescue-011-7804789.html?ref=DMDesc Israel's Troop Presence in Gaza Complicates Ceasefire Negotiations with Hamas :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/israel-troops-gaza-complicates-truce-talks-011-7796581.html?ref=DMDesc

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has confirmed that critical Russia-Ukraine peace talks are set for Wednesday in Turkey. As the war drags on and battlefield realities shift, questions loom large over what Zelensky might concede—and what Moscow might demand.

Iran, Russia, China Unite in Nuclear Talks—US Sidelined, EU Threatens Sanctions Showdown in Istanbul

As global tensions rise, Iran hosts trilateral nuclear talks with Russia and China—just days before a critical summit with European powers in Istanbul. The U.S., once central to negotiations, now watches from the sidelines as Tehran rejects direct dialogue. With the 2015 nuclear deal hanging by a thread and “snapback” sanctions looming, the geopolitical stakes have never been higher. Will this new Iran–Russia–China axis reshape the global balance of power? And can Europe force Iran back into compliance—or will diplomacy collapse once again? #Iran #NuclearTalks #ChinaRussiaIran #USIran #SnapbackSanctions #MiddleEast #Geopolitics #IstanbulSummit #IranDeal #RussiaChinaAlliance #JCPOA #BreakingNews #GlobalDiplomacy #IranNuclearDeal #TehranTalks ~PR.274~HT.408~ED.420~

Triple Threat to Trump|Moscow, Beijing, Tehran in a huddle over Nuclear Programme to challenge U.S

Russia, China, and Iran are set to hold high-level trilateral talks to counter renewed EU threats of snapback sanctions over Iran’s nuclear program. Tehran claims the U.S. is not part of any negotiation and rejects new IAEA demands as biased and unlawful. While France, Britain, and Germany warn of penalties unless Iran complies, Moscow and Beijing back Tehran’s call for diplomacy. Separate Iran-EU talks in Istanbul are scheduled, but Iran maintains it will not engage with the U.S., escalating nuclear tensions ahead of a critical month. #IranNuclearDeal #RussiaChinaIran #NuclearTalks #SnapbackSanctions #IAEA #IranUS #Trump #Putin #XiJinping #Khamenei #Araghchi #TehranDiplomacy #IranNuclearCrisis #Geopolitics #BreakingNews #IranSanctions #ChinaIranAlliance #RussiaIran #NuclearStandoff #USIranTensions #DiplomaticCrisis #JCPOA #NoTalksWithUS #IranEnergyProgram #TehranStatement #IranEU #IstanbulTalks #WesternPressure #MiddleEastNews #UNSecurityCouncil #TrumpThreat #IranRejectsIAEA ~ED.194~HT.408~

‘No NATO? Then No Disarmament’ France’s Big WARNING Against Russia |France Draws Red Line On Ukraine [Video]

‘No NATO? Then No Disarmament’ France’s Big WARNING Against Russia |France Draws Red Line On Ukraine

In a defiant statement ahead of key NATO-related discussions, French Defense Minister Sébastien Lecornu declared France’s “absolute red line” in the Ukraine conflict: demilitarizing Ukraine while denying it NATO membership. Lecornu told Valeurs Actuelles that Europe cannot accept a defenseless Ukraine outside NATO, directly rejecting Russia's long-standing demands for a neutral, demilitarized Ukraine. Russia, in contrast, insists any peace deal must address its security concerns — including Ukraine’s NATO ambition and military status. Lecornu's remarks come ahead of a UK-French push to reshape Ukraine’s post-war military under a Western “coalition of the willing.” Meanwhile, Moscow warns such moves will escalate the war, with foreign forces seen as “legitimate targets.” Tensions mount as Putin claims Ukraine reneged on the 2022 Istanbul terms that would’ve imposed limits on its army. The future of Ukraine’s military — and its place in Europe — hangs in the balance. #France #UkraineWar #RussiaUkraine #SebastienLecornu #UkraineNATO #NATOmembership #Putin #Kyiv #Demilitarization #Geopolitics #EUForeignPolicy #Macron #RedLine #CoalitionOfTheWilling #RussiaDemands #PeaceDeal #IstanbulTalks #TrumpUkraine #UkraineConflict #MilitaryAid Also Read Russia And North Korea Forge New Alliance Amid Ongoing War In Ukraine :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/russia-and-north-korea-forge-new-alliance-amid-ongoing-war-in-ukraine-3857193.html?ref=DMDesc Heightened Nuclear Risks As Russia, China Forge Closer Ties: NATO Chief :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/heightened-nuclear-risks-as-russia-china-forge-closer-ties-nato-chief-3855631.html?ref=DMDesc Hundreds Exchanged in Russia-Ukraine Prisoner Swap, Marking Largest Release Since Invasion :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/russia-ukraine-prisoner-swap-hundreds-freed-in-largest-exchange-gen-3718639.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.318~ED.102~GR.125~

Trump Pulls Plug On Russia Talks? Moscow FUMES As Hopes For Diplomatic Thaw Crash Again

Russia has revealed that Washington has “postponed” a crucial third round of consultations aimed at resolving bilateral irritants, according to Foreign Ministry spokesperson Maria Zakharova. The talks, initially expected to build on earlier rounds held in Istanbul in February and April, are seen as essential for easing growing U.S.–Russia tensions. While the U.S. hasn't formally canceled the negotiations, the delay has sparked speculation over Washington’s intent and diplomatic posture. Zakharova emphasized that contacts remain active behind the scenes and that Moscow still perceives interest from the U.S. in improving ties. The “irritant removal” dialogue, seen as a rare platform amid escalating rhetoric, now faces renewed uncertainty. Is Washington backing away or recalibrating its approach? #RussiaUSRelations #MariaZakharova #USTalksPostponed #MoscowWashingtonTensions #RussiaUSDialogue #Geopolitics #RussiaNews #USTensions #InternationalTalks #USRussiaUpdate #ZakharovaStatement #ForeignPolicy #USDelaysTalks #PutinBiden #IstanbulTalks #BilateralRelations #GlobalDiplomacy #BreakingNews #RussiaUSA #USForeignPolicy ~HT.410~ED.346~GR.124~
