Turkey detains 209 in pre-NATO summit crackdown

Turkey has arrested 209 people and is searching for 32 others ahead of next month’s NATO summit in Ankara, the capital’s prosecutor’s office said. The detentions come as authorities impose a ban on demonstrations during preparations for the high-profile meeting. The crackdown targets suspected organizers of planned protests, though officials have not specified the exact charges. The NATO summit is expected to draw world leaders to Ankara in mid-July.
