Milas (Turkey) (AFP) – Villagers and environmental activists in southwest Turkey clash with security forces as they protest against the clearance of Akbelen forest to make way for the expansion of a coal mine. The protest quickly descends into chaos as security forces are seen firing tear gas and water cannons at protesters who are blocking the road outside Akbelen forest. Close by, activists can be heard chanting “We will resist, we will win!”
