Istanbul Residents Celebrate Newroz

On 20 March, 2021, Istanbul residents gathered in Yenikapi for Newroz, a celebration of the arrival of spring and the new year in Kurdish culture. The crowd took part in traditional activities such halay dancing and jumping over fires to mark the holiday. Kurdish politicians with the Peoples' Democratic Party (HDP) also gave speeches as their party faces mounting threats of closure. Above, HDP co-chair Pervin Buldan addresses the crowd.
