Sotsiaalmeediasse on pandud video, kuidas käib Türgis looduskaitsjate laiali ajamine. Selleks kasutati keemilist vedelikku ja veekahureid.

Meetmeid kasutati inimeste vastu, kes protsesteerisid Akbelenis metsa mahavõtmise vastu, sinna tahetakse rajada uus söekaevandus.

Nagu videost näha, on meetmed üsna karmid.

Police in southwest Turkey used chemical sprays and water cannons against environmental activists trying to stop deforestation in the Akbelen forest to accommodate a coal mine https://t.co/qyyBmJ0TWr pic.twitter.com/QKa4QQMQg6
