Clarification on what's happening in Turkey now
Hundreds of thousands of Turks are taking to the streets to oust Erdogan, following his arrest of Istanbul Mayor Ekrem İmamoğlu, a member of the opposition Republican People's Party (CHP), and the deputy head of the Alevi Council, Benali Sağlam.
The protests escalated after Erdogan's role in the massacres of Syrian Alawites on the coast.
The Turkish People's Republican Party (CHP) is an opposition party, most of whose leaders are Alawites. Because of the CHP's criticism of the massacres that took place on the Syrian coast, Erdogan took revenge by arresting the party's most prominent leaders.
