Latest update on Istanbul
We have received information that there may be another small gathering of demonstrators tonight in the same area as last night – at the bottom of Istiklal street near Taksim square. As a result, the EAIE Access Dinner at Sevic Restaurant has been cancelled due to safety concerns. All registered participants for this event will receive an e-mail from the EAIE. The potential demonstration is expected to be concentrated in this small area below Taksim square. All other EAIE events will go ahead as planned.
As a precaution, we advise you to stay away from lower Istiklal street, and to stay alert if you are travelling in the surrounding area. We will continue to monitor the situation and will provide updates as necessary.
