Protests and arrests as anti-Syrian riots rock Turkey


Recommended Posts

Turkey’s government is urging for calm after violence against Syrian refugees broke out in the central Melikgazi region and spread to other areas.

 

Riots erupted after Turkish authorities arrested a Syrian man for allegedly sexually abusing a seven-year-old Syrian girl in the central city of Kayseri.

 

Turkish residents, infuriated by online reports of the crime, flipped over cars in Kayseri and set Syrian-run shops alight on Sunday night, demanding that Syrians be kicked out of the country.

Sounds a bit over the top does that, and now Turks in Syria being targeted.

 

Wouldn't it just be best if everyone agreed to just go back home?
