11:39⇢CHP Congress Erupts Into Legitimacy Battle
⌨The newspapers report on CHP's 21st Extraordinary Congress, with Özgür Özel emerging as the sole candidate after Ümit Uysal's withdrawal (Birgun, Gerçek Gündem). In his congress speech, Özel declared that "Erdoğan has no legitimacy anymore" and characterized actions against İstanbul Mayor Ekrem İmamoğlu as "a conspiracy against Kurds' right to elect and be elected" (Bianet). This prompted sharp responses from AK Party Spokesperson Ömer Çelik, who stated "coup equals CHP" in the "democratic political dictionary" (Hürriyet, Sabah). Other headlines mention poll averages (Cumhuriyet), chocolate warnings from a ministry (OdaTV), and a child abuse case in Tekirdağ (Milliyet).
