Description
Turkish police fire rubber bullets at protesters near Istanbul's city hall in the Sarachane district challenging a government ban on May 1 rallies at the capital's historic Taksim Square. The closure of Taksim Square for protests was ruled as a violation of rights by the country's top constitutional court in 2023. "Taksim is an important symbol for us. Taksim means May Day, Taksim means labour," Arzu Cerkezoglu, Secretary General of Turkey's biggest workers' union DISK tells AFP. IMAGES AND SOUNDBITES
