Description
Turkish activists defy a ban to stage an annual gay pride march in Istanbul one month after Turkey's election followed a homophobic hate-filled campaign. A few hundred demonstrators waving rainbow flags held rallies including in Istanbul's upscale Nisantasi neighbourhood after being banned from the iconic Taksim square -- the venue of 2013 anti-government protests. Turkey's LGBTQ community fears more pressure after conservative President Recep Tayyip Erdogan won the May vote to extend his rule until 2028. IMAGES AND SOUNDBITES
