10-15,000 Turkish Cypriots protested against the Turkish government’s intervention in the region, calling for reunification without intervention from either Greece or their own mainland. The protest was organized by the newly formed Democracy and Political Will Party, calling for the reintegration of the Turkish north into the Greek-majority government.
Hundreds of protesters in Sudan took to the streets for a 3rd consecutive day in opposition to the removal of government subsidies for fuel and petrol, which raised the consumer price by more than 200%. Demonstrators blocked roads, burnt tires, and placed barricades in order to pressure the government to concede.
Anarchists in Ankara University took to the streets with an attendance of ~40 people against the 39th university of the Council of Higher Education (Yükseköğretim Kurulu), or YÖK for short. It has been widely criticized for presenting an educational program which presents the Turkish state in an extremely favorable manner.
Protesters in the central city of Putaendo took to the streets and burned barricades to demand more access to water, which was compromised due to local government incompetence.
