15:10⇢Three Ex-Leaders Rally Behind Özel
⌨The newspapers report on CHP leader Özgür Özel facing internal party pressure as three former party leaders - Öymen, Çetin and Karayalçın - issue a joint statement calling for party members to "stand firmly behind Özel" (Bianet, OdaTV). Özel himself dismisses concerns, stating "nothing negative will happen" (Birgun). This support comes amid ongoing leadership disputes following yesterday's election challenge. Meanwhile, Russia signals readiness for new Ukraine peace talks in Turkey, with Putin again pointing to Istanbul as a potential venue (Daily Sabah, Gerçek Gündem). The diplomatic positioning suggests Turkey maintaining its mediator role in the conflict. Other stories include Emine Erdoğan meeting with Turkey Youth Foundation executives (Hürriyet), a court decision regarding defendants who caused someone's death by abandoning them after assault (Milliyet), and government media claiming China imitates Turkey (Sabah).
