★ On January 6, Mr. Hakan Fidan, Turkey's Foreign Affairs Minister, said that Turkey would conduct a military operation in Syria if the leaders of YPG, the militia of the Syrian Kurds, do not leave Syria and they don't disarm.
Turkey considers the YPG, the main constituent of the US-allied Syrian democratic forces, as a terrorist group affiliated with Turkey's rebel Kurds.

★ According to VOA's Dorian Jones, the overthrow of Bashar al-Assad has led to a face-off between Turkey and Israel in Syria, where both countries have deployed forces.
Relations between Turkey and Israel strained over the Gaza war, and now analysts warn of a new escalation.
Dorian Jones also reported that Syrian refugees in Turkey, numbering officially four million, have mixed feelings about returning to Syria.
In the initial days after Assad's downfall, the sentiment to return was high. However, over time, it waned when refugees realized that Syria was devastated and there were no schools, hospitals, and no economy.
But the Turkish public wants them out as soon as possible, and the Turkish government is under pressure.
So far, Turkish officials say that only about 35,000 Syrians have returned home.

★ The Future, Democracy and Progress, and Felicity, three minor opposition parties in the Turkish parliament, decided to merge and establish a parliamentary group.
The constituent parties chose Celal Mümtaz Akıncı, a former constitutional court judge and a vice president of the Democracy and Progress party, as their leader.
The parties are all on the right, and the existing presidents of the two are former high-level members of the Ruling Justice and Development Party who were cabinet ministers.
A parliamentary group is the official recognition of a party's presence and influence within the Turkish parliament.
It provides access to resources and privileges within the parliament, such as office space, staff, and speaking time during parliamentary sessions.
Parties with parliamentary groups can propose legislation, participate in parliamentary committees, and influence the legislative process.

★ According to Bianet, 14 professional press organizations from Turkey gathered at the Association of Graduates of the Ankara University School of Political Sciences building on January 10 Working Journalists' Day.
Progressive Journalists' Association Chairperson Kıvanç El read the joint statement. He said journalism is a profession in Turkey where labor and exploitation were "least visible."
He added:
"The media is under almost complete control of the establishment, placing obstacles in the path of independent journalism. Our colleagues, working under precarious conditions and subject to whatever the boss says, face further obstacles in detentions, arrests, and house arrests."

★ According to the online news outlet Bianet, The Education and Science Workers Union filed a court case against the protocol signed between Turkey's Ministry of National Education Lifelong Education Center and Ülkü Ocakları, Idealist Hearths, also known as Grey Wolves.
The protocol signed on December 31, 2024, permitted the Idealist Hearths to organize vocational and technical courses within the scope of universal education activities in schools.
The Idealist Hearths is the youth wing of the extreme-right Nationalist Action Party. Zülküf Güneş, the general secretary of the union, said there could be no connection between the idea of education and Idealist Hearths, which he said has a dark past, Mafia connections, and the murders it committed.
Güneş added that the Ministry of National Education has exposed schools to religious and racist communities, foundations, and organizations.

★ In 2019, the Justice and Development Party-led administration gave RTÜK, the Radio and Television Supreme Council of Turkey, the authority to demand media platforms broadcasting via the Internet to obtain licenses.
RTUK asked recently the daily Cumhuriyet to obtain a license for videos on its website and on its YouTube channel.
Media and Law Studies Association codirector Barış Altıntaş described this move by RTÜK as one of the most serious threats against freedom of expression in Turkey.
He also mentioned how RTÜK blocked the Turkish services of Deutsche Welle and Voice of America for not taking out licenses for the videos they published on their websites.
Altıntaş compared RTÜK's practices to those of Roskomnadzor, the Russian agency for monitoring, controlling, and censoring media and the Internet.

★ Excavations at the Hadrianopolis Ancient City in the Eskipazar district of Karabuk, Turkey, unveiled two bone game pieces dating back to the 5th century.
The discovery offers a glimpse into ancient military strategy games once played in the region. Archeologists think it provides evidence of the strategic thinking within the military in Hadrianopolis.
The ancient city, inhabited during the Late Chalcolithic, Roman, and Early Byzantine periods, continues to reveal its secrets through ongoing excavation and restoration work led by Dr. Ersin Celikbas, a professor at the Department of Archaeology at Karabuk University.
In addition to the game pieces, the excavation has so far uncovered a range of structures, including two baths, two churches, a defensive structure, rock tombs, an inner castle, an underground rock settlement, a fountain, an archway, monumental niches, city walls, villas, and several sacred areas.

★ In a quiet village in eastern Turkey, a stunning piece of history has come to light, offering a vivid window into ancient Roman life, reports the ArtDog Istanbul magazine.
The late Roman-era mosaic, spanning 900 sq.ft, was discovered by chance in the village of Salkaya by farmer Mehmet Emin Sualp while planting cherry saplings.
This rare masterpiece, buried under 20 inches of soil, has remained remarkably intact despite centuries of upheaval.
The mosaic, believed to date back to the late third century, features an extraordinary array of hunting scenes unmatched in both size and artistry in Turkey.
Among the depictions are fierce animals in pursuit: a lion chases a mountain goat, a bear stalks a stag, and sleek greyhounds corner a wild boar.
In its most dramatic tableau, an Anatolian leopard is shown sinking its teeth into an ostrich's neck—a powerful scene capturing both the predator's dominance and the fragility of life.

★ The Turkish Ministry of Culture is carrying out a cleaning program aimed at opening to the public the underground spaces of the famous Hagia Sophia in İstanbul, one of the world's architectural wonders. Roman Emperor Justinian commissioned it built in 532.
The project includes the restoration of tunnels, vaults, corridors, and a three-room underground tomb beneath the historic structure.
These subterranean features served a variety of purposes, from ventilation to storage and even burial. They are interconnected, forming a concealed network described by experts as the "lifelines" of Hagia Sophia.
