Turkey is Entering Full Lockdown

The president of Turkey Recep Tayyip Erdoğan has announced a national lockdown for Turkey to bring the number of positive cases of COVID-19 and deaths. The lockdown will begin from the 29th of April at 19:00 hrs. to end on the 17th of May 05:00 AM. People are told to stay at home and shop at local markets or supermarkets closest to their homes, and to work from home where it is possible to do so. This is all that is allowed until the 17th of May. This also means our #morningviews campaign will be forced to stop during the lockdown. Yet we will be loading earlier photos and videos online and share more great content from Marmaris and Icmeler. We have initiated this campaign last November, and wish to continue it for as long as it takes. We admit this could be the hardest lockdown for the past year Click here for details >>
