Turkey Boils Over: Mass arrests as protests continue in nation's four largest cities



Berpuluh-puluh ribu orang yang bertempur dengan polis di empat bandar Turki terbesar sebagai sengit protes anti-kerajaan terus ke awal pagi Isnin.

Protes Ahad ini tidak begitu ganas sebagaimana 2 hari lalu, yang membawa kepada beribu-ribu kecederaan, tetapi polis menggunakan gas pemedih mata untuk menyuraikan beratus-ratus orang di Ankara, Istanbul, Izdul dan Adana, Perdana Menteri Turki, sementara itu, menolak dakwaan bahawa beliau adalah seorang "diktator," menolak penunjuk perasaan sebagai pinggir ekstremis.

Tens of thousands of people clashed with police in Turkey's four biggest cities as fierce anti-government protests continued early into Monday morning.

Sunday's protests were not as violent as the past two days, which led to thousands of injuries, but police used tear gas to disperse hundreds of people in Ankara, Istanbul, Izdul and Adana, Turkey's prime minister, meanwhile, rejected claims that he is a "dictator," dismissing protesters as an extremist fringe.
