07.02.2025 ⇢ Two Cities Count Their Dead, Streets Choose Silence
⌨
The bootleg alcohol crisis reached new heights as death counts hit 33 in Ankara and 70 in Istanbul. Morning coverage focused on judicial developments, with nine defendants receiving life sentences in the Hrant Dink case, while the Istanbul Governor's office rejected CHP's request for a Gaza solidarity march.
By afternoon, President Erdoğan's direct confrontation with Mayor İmamoğlu during the AKP Istanbul congress generated multiple response cycles, culminating in Justice Minister Tunç's intervention regarding İmamoğlu's comments about the judiciary. The evening brought Kılıçdaroğlu's first substantial statement since his electoral defeat, speaking of "betrayal by companions" - a clear reference to İmamoğlu and Yavaş.
Weather continued affecting Istanbul operations, while officials processed MHP leader Bahçeli's successful heart surgery from the previous day. The Central Bank's inflation forecast revision sparked minimal coverage, suggesting media focus remained on political narratives.
