Turkish authorities have arrested dozens of people, including opposition party members and municipal mayors, in Istanbul and Adana on corruption charges. This is the fifth wave of arrests targeting President Erdogan's opponents, following the imprisonment of Istanbul Mayor Ekrem Imamoglu, a key rival. Imamoglu, from the CHP party, has denounced the arrests as unjust. The arrests have sparked widespread protests and further detentions, with the UN and Amnesty International expressing concern over the actions.
