Metro Stations and Taksim Roads Closed as Istanbul Marks Gezi Protests Anniversary
In observance of the anniversary of the Gezi Park protests, local authorities in Istanbul implemented significant security and crowd-control measures around the city center. Metro İstanbul, the municipal rail transit operator, announced the suspension of services on multiple lines traversing the Taksim Square area. Concurrently, roads leading to Taksim were closed to vehicular traffic. These preventative closures remained in effect until further notice to manage public movement during the anniversary date.
