Soccer fans to march in Istanbul's Kadikoy district, Turkiye, from 15:00 Sept. 28. Heightened security likely.
Fans of the Fenerbahce soccer club plan to march through Istanbul's Kadikoy district during the afternoon of Sept. 28. The purpose of the demonstration is to denounce the team's ownership. Participants will gather at Rihtim Square at 15:00 before marching to Ulker Fenerbahce Sukru Saracoglu Stadium. It remains unclear how many people may attend.
Heightened security and localized transport disruptions are likely along the march route. Low-level confrontations between demonstrators and law enforcement officers cannot be ruled out.
Avoid the affected area as a standard precaution. Allow additional time if traveling near or between Rihtim Square and Ulker Fenerbahce Sukru Saracoglu Stadium. Strictly heed all instructions from law enforcement officers. Immediately depart the area at the first sign of any security disturbance.
