Deadly terrorist attack leaves nearly 2,000 dead

TURKEY– Following the much anticipated clash between Galatasaray and Fenerbahçe at the Intercontinental Derby, in which Fenerbahçe defeated the reigning UEFA Champions 3-2, an explosion rocked Turkey to its core. Taking place approximately 15 minutes after the game ended, just as fans began leaving the stands. The explosion took place right outside Şükrü Saracoğlu Stadium, with the first official count of death coming by the police department three hours later. At that time it stood at 1,306, and it has risen to 1,832 so far. With over 6,000 currently in critical condition, or even fighting death itself, the total death count is estimated to be anywhere from 2,100-3,800.

How this happened is still unknown, with suspects include a possible PKK successor group though unlikely. Others have suggested that this attack could have been carried out by Palestinian Nationalists over Turkey's relationship with Israel. Some have even suggested that [North Korea] could be behind the attack, due to Turkey's recent deployment of troops to Korea. As well as the military parade in Seoul that many in Pyongyang have considered a 'act of hostility'. Other suspects for the attack include the Egypt, the United States, some element from Sahuristan, or Russia. Though who is responsible has not yet, a lot of people have suggested that the explosion that happened outside İzmir an the attack in İstanbul are connected. (when a police officer confronted a van without licensee plates led to the van detonating itself. Killing the men inside, and the officer in the process.)

In the remains of the explosion in İzmir, the İzmir PD were able to track the vans license plate. Which was found in the wreckage of the van. The plate came back with the number 01, Adana. Just this the İzmir PD confirmed the following information of the two men behind the attack, both are 22, and of Sahuri origin. Both entered Turkey as refugees, and were granted access to leave the refugee zone a week ago. Other information has been withheld in interest of national security. The National Security Council has recently ruled that this decision to allow Sahuri Refugees outside of Refugee Zone will be reversed.

Today across İstanbul hundreds of funerals were held, with hundreds more planned throughout the week for those who passed on the attack. The ruling of the National Security Council has also led to a sharp increase of anti-refugee rhetoric on social media, even SHP Leader Muharrem İnce taking to social media with #SiktirSahuri (#F*ckOffSahuri). And blaming the Sahuri Refugees for the attack. Many have said that this sudden nationalistic polarization is why the National Security Council imposed a martial law, and a 72 hour nationwide curfew (excluding essential business, hospitals, and funeral service).

State of Emergency declared

TURKEY – An hour after the attack, Chief of the General Staff Hulusi Akar addressed the nation on all channels through an emergency broadcast. The following is that broadcast in its entirety.

"O the Turkish Republic, we are in one of our darkest hours at this moment. But we will not surrender. The National Security Council, with the blessing of President Meral Akşener, has declared a State of Emergency. We will be acting swiftly to assure that stability and safety of the Turkish nation remains our utmost priority.

Everyone currently in Kadıköy and surrounding areas, please stay in doors. Stay safe. And open your doors to those who may need it right now. We will show these evil actors of terror that the Turks only kneel to [God] and the Eternal President himself. All law enforcement is working at this highest degree is at work, and we will bring the people behind this terror to justice.

Let us make one thing clear to our people, we will find who did this, we will hunt them down. We will kill them. This is an attack on the Turkish Republic, and an attack on all our citizens. It will not go unpunished, and hell will be brought to the doorstep of those behind it.

We will prayer together, we will get stronger together as a nation, and move forward. I request to our people that we keep our heads high, help one Another. Do not surrender to this evil, we will overcome it.

May our Eternal President look after us in this dark time, may his wisdom guide us out of this dark period. And together like the War of Independence, and all conflicts since then. We will triumph!"



Jandarma units arrest Sahuri Refugees in Antalya / A-Haber
What now?

TURKEY – In the last 12 hours a lot of things have changed, the once movement to allowed Sahuri's to fully integrate into Turkish society will be put on hold for the foreseeable future as they will now be required to stay within the Refugee Zone. Though this has created some controversy, largely it has been approved by the Turkish public.

With nearly 12,000 Sahuri Refugee already being given access to freely travel across the country, and already hundreds of reports coming in of Sahuri's being arrested across Turkey. It will be interesting to see how this will play out, and how this will play in Turkey's political atmosphere. Many now increasing calls to deport all Sahuri's, but large voices still do argue that the Sahuri Refugees should not be punished for a failed attack of two radicals. As no evidence has even been shown that the attack in İstanbul is connected to the Sahuri incident in İzmir.

As of today though, all provincial Jandarma units have been federalized. With them now being charged to use contract tracing to find the last location of the Sahuri Refugees, to bring those who refuse to return to the Refugee Zone. Though no incident of violence has yet to be reported, and is very likely to remain that way.
