Serious riots against Syrian refugees in Türkiye
Since the start of the Syrian civil war, Turkey has taken in more than three million refugees. Now there are serious riots against Syrians in Turkish cities – and anti-Turkish protests in Syria.
Carnage-like conditions prevailed Sunday evening in Kayseri, a conservative city of millions in central Anatolia. “We don’t want any more Syrians, we don’t want any more refugees,” protesters chanted. And it’s not just words: Many Syrian-owned shops, homes and cars were vandalized with rocks and clubs and, in at least one case, set on fire.
Although Kayseri is a stronghold of Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan and his Justice and Development Party, the rioters are demanding Erdogan’s resignation. They hold him responsible for the large number of refugees in the country. They accuse the refugees of being the cause of the tense economic situation with rising prices and lack of living space.
Nearly 500 people were arrested.
The protests spread to several other cities on Monday, from Gaziantep on the Syrian border to the western city of Bursa. Police responded with water cannons and tear gas. The next day, Interior Minister Ali Yerlikaya said the number of rioters detained was about 500, many with criminal records.
There have been frequent riots against refugees in Turkey. Ahead of parliamentary and presidential elections last year, the umbrella organization of Syrian associations in Turkey complained of increased violence during the election campaign. Spokesman Mehmet Akter said at the time: ARD Studio Istanbul:
Yes, we see it very clearly. Unfortunately, it was the same in 2019. Before the local elections at that time, the Syrians were the issue of the election campaign. They were accused of all sorts of things, including in the media. After the elections in 2020 and 2021, we had no problems. All the discussions ended in no time.
A Syrian man is said to have harassed a girl.
There are no elections this time. The reason the mob is still roaming the streets is a message that has spread on social media: A Syrian man is said to have sexually harassed a seven-year-old Syrian girl. The man has since been arrested.
But the violence did not end there. Instead, the tide has shifted: As a result of the riots in Turkey, there are now anti-Turkish protests in northern Syria. “Come on guys, come on, smash the cars!” In an online video that has been viewed nearly five million times in a short period of time, men attack Turkish trucks with paving stones, clubs and iron bars at the al-Bab border crossing. Windows are broken. “Come on, get out! Come on, go back to Turkey!” the men shout.
Speculation about meetings between Erdogan and Assad
In the eyes of the Turkish opposition, the background to the tensions is not the incident in Kayseri, or not only. There is speculation about a possible meeting between Turkish President Erdogan and Syrian President Bashar al-Assad. Both have been hostile to each other since the outbreak of the Syrian war.
The potential rapprochement worries Syrian refugees in Turkey, on the one hand, because they fear returning to Syria, and, on the other hand, pro-Turkish rebels in Syria, because they fear for their protection from Erdogan.
A Turkish truck caught fire at the Al-Bab border crossing.
Such a meeting could be arranged as early as this week by Russian President Vladimir Putin, Assad’s most important ally. Erdogan is expected to meet Putin on the sidelines of a Shanghai Cooperation Organization summit that begins Wednesday in Kazakhstan.

The Conservatives, led by Prime Minister Sunak, face a serious defeat in the 2024 British elections. The latest opinion polls are devastating.
Updated from July 4, 5:51 p.m.: Opinion polls suggest that the right-wing populist Reform Party is on the rise in the UK general election. Nigel Farage’s party has changed the British election campaign once again – and the gains made by Reform in the UK would further damage the Conservative Party’s bleak prospects. But support for Reform is too evenly distributed, and the party’s organization is too weak for Farage to win many seats outright.
Like the British guardian Opinion polls are reported to show that while the Reform Party in the UK will not win many seats, it will win at least some. Opinion polls suggest that Nigel Farage will finally win a seat in the House of Commons at his eighth attempt.
Labour on brink of landslide victory in UK election
Updated July 4, 3:07 p.m.: If the latest UK election polls are correct, Labour could win its biggest majority since 1832 and hand the Conservatives a heavy defeat. Voting is now underway in Great Britain for a few more hours, but in Britain times It is already assumed that many Conservative MPs could lose their parliamentary seats. Even in the most optimistic UK election polls, Rishi Sunak’s party could end up with at least 200 fewer seats than the 365 it won in 2019.
Latest opinion polls paint a clear picture of the UK election: Forecasts expected as of 11pm
Updated from July 4, 1:51 p.m.: The elections are currently underway in Great Britain. Many politicians have already cast their votes. Rishi Sunak and Keir Starmer are among others.

According to opinion polls and forecasts, the Labour Party is the most likely candidate in the British elections in 2024.
LONDON – The Conservative Party has been in power in the United Kingdom for fourteen years. But that will soon come to an end. A Conservative victory in the 2024 British general election on July 4 is considered all but impossible. And recent opinion polls have been devastating for Prime Minister Rishi Sunak’s party.
This time, there may be no way to avoid a Labour victory in the House of Commons. Basically, one question remains unanswered: how much can the Social Democrats win? Or, to put it another way: how bad are things for the Conservatives? In any case, the latest opinion polls before the election in Great Britain do not allow for any other conclusion: the Conservatives are in danger of falling into insignificance.

But why him? Labour leader Keir Starmer is not a strong opponent; many people in the UK know little about the sober human rights lawyer or the aims of the Social Democrats. No, the Tories themselves are to blame. The final verdict was that “the Tories have lost the right to govern.” Sunday times.and commercial paper Financial Times „Britain needs a fresh start,” he commented.
This will likely happen. Look at the numbers from recent polls by Great Britain Elections The Conservatives appear likely to face a real collapse. This is also due to competition from the UK’s Reform Party: party leader Nigel Farage, who played a key role in pushing for Brexit, has significantly increased pressure on Sunak from the right with his anti-immigration rhetoric and criticism of the Conservatives.

| Conservatives | 21.1 |

Seat distribution projections based on the latest opinion polls for the 2024 UK general election
We should also bear in mind that in Great Britain, MPs are elected using majority voting – unlike in Germany, where personal proportional representation is used. For the Conservative Party, the predictions for the distribution of seats in the House of Commons based on the latest opinion polls are much worse than pure percentage values.
Many forecasts suggest the Conservatives will win around 100 seats. Sunak could also make history: according to the latest polls, he could become the first sitting prime minister in history to be voted out of office in his own constituency. The UK’s Reform Party, which is expected to win only a handful of seats in the House of Commons, is struggling with voting rights.
Latest polls and forecasts point to a clear outcome in the 2024 UK election
The House of Commons in London has 650 seats. These are distributed among MPs from the four parts of the United Kingdom. Each MP represents one constituency: 543 in England, 57 in Scotland, 32 in Wales and 18 in Northern Ireland.
The last general election in Great Britain was held in December 2019. The Conservative Party, led by former party leader Boris Johnson, clearly exceeded the absolute majority of 326 seats in the election, winning 365 seats. The Labour Party won 202 seats at the time. The Scottish National Party won 48 seats, while the Liberal Democrats won eleven seats. (CS / AFP / AFP)

According to an American report, Donald Trump wants to make an offer to Ukraine if Vladimir Putin wins the elections – without Kiev.
Washington – Explosive report on the war in Ukraine: Like the famous American news magazine Politico Donald Trump is said to be willing to cede occupied territories in Ukraine to Russia if he wins the election if Moscow agrees to peace.
Trump’s Offer to Putin? Controversial US Report on Ukraine War
In the 2024 US election, the new (or old) US president will be elected on November 5th of this year. Trump, 78, who was the 45th US president from 2017 to 2021, will run again as a Republican. Presumably against incumbent Joe Biden (Democrats).
He writes that Trump should think about it. Politicoto offer Putin that both Ukraine and Georgia abandon NATO membership for the sake of peace negotiations. This bypasses the decision-makers in Kiev and Tbilisi.
Ukraine and Georgia: Donald Trump reportedly planning to make a deal with Vladimir Putin
As two unnamed Republican national security experts told the news magazine, Donald Trump also reportedly wants to negotiate with Vladimir Putin over how much Ukrainian territory Moscow could keep if he wins the election.
With Washington, Kiev’s most important ally and arms supplier, tolerating Biden. So the alleged de-escalation of the war in Ukraine should play a major role in Trump’s plans for NATO if the controversial real estate mogul is again elected to the highest office in the United States by voters. According to the report, the United States will not abandon the defense alliance under his leadership, but NATO expansion to the east as a security guarantee for Ukraine and Georgia will be off the table (for now).
Zelensky sends a message from Ukraine to Donald Trump
Trump has repeatedly claimed in the past that he would end the war in Ukraine within 24 hours. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has now demanded clarity on how the Republican is supposed to achieve that. “If Trump knows how to end this war, he should tell us today,” Zelensky said in an interview with Russia Today. Bloomberg TV“If there are threats to Ukraine’s independence, then we must lose our statehood – we want to be prepared for that, and we want to know that.”
In the interview, Zelensky said he was ready to meet with Trump and his team and listen to their suggestions. “We want to understand whether in November (After the US election in 2024, i.e. red“We will have strong support from the United States, or we will be alone after that.” There are major concerns in Kiev and within the NATO military alliance that if Trump wins the election, he could cut off arms shipments and aid payments to Ukraine, which has been invaded by Putin’s regime and which in turn desperately wants to become a NATO member.

After contact with an infected cow

Experts around the world are concerned: This is the fourth time a person in the United States has been infected with the bird flu virus. After Texas and Michigan, a dairy farm in Colorado is now the source of the infection. The health authority is assessing the risk.
For the fourth time in just a few months, a person in the United States has contracted bird flu after coming into contact with infected dairy cows — this time in Colorado. As in previous cases, the woman worked on a dairy farm and was exposed to cows that had been found to have the H5N1 virus, the CDC said. In April, the first case of bird flu was reported in a dairy farm worker in Texas, followed by two more cases in Michigan.
The Colorado patient had only mild symptoms of bird flu in her eyes and was given an antiviral medication. She has since recovered, they said. However, the CDC reiterated calls for precautions for farm workers who handle infected cows. In the Colorado case, “further genetic analysis” is underway to identify potential variants of the virus that “could change the agency’s risk assessment” for the population.
The H5N1 avian influenza virus has increasingly spread to mammals in recent months, including dairy cattle in the United States. Numerous cattle herds have been infected in several US states, and the outbreak was first detected in March.
Drosten: All experts are concerned
Several people have already been infected, raising fears of an impending pandemic. Given the spread of H5N1 in the United States, the chief virologist at Berlin’s Charité hospital, Christian Drosten, has described the bird flu virus as a potential cause of an upcoming pandemic. The pathogen has recently appeared in dairy herds in the United States and „has even appeared in dairy products on the market,” Drosten said at the weekend. „There has never been anything like this before, such a large spread in cows – all the experts are worried.”
However, the virologist explained that there is no better view of the data to make a more accurate assessment. “We don’t yet know how often people who interact with these infected cows are getting infected.” It is desirable that decisive action be taken now in the United States.
