Protest and evacuation

Son Dakika and T24 report that a pro-Palestinian group protested against Klodya Medina at İstinyePark in Istanbul’s Sarıyer district. The shopping centre was cleared after tensions rose, and security personnel escorted Medina outside. The source says mobile-phone footage recorded the incident.

Allegations require careful attribution

Son Dakika identifies participants as members of the Palestine Freedom Vigil Platform. Reports contain allegations about Medina’s links to the Israeli military and people she brought to Türkiye, but the sources reviewed provide no official evidence establishing those claims. We do not present them as verified facts. Israeli citizenship alone is not evidence of military activity.

What visitors should know

T24 reports that no firearm or bladed weapon was used. The evacuation should not be interpreted as a permanent closure of the centre. The report provides no confirmed reopening time or details of today’s operating arrangements; visitors should consult current announcements from centre management.
