The Council of State, Türkiye's top administrative court, has issued a landmark ruling declaring it unlawful to subject judges to pat-downs when X-ray screening devices raise alarms at airport entrances.

President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan has filed criminal complaints against Engin Özkoç and Aykut Erdoğdu, lawmakers from the main opposition Republican People's Party (CHP), accusing the MPs of "insulting" the president.

Özkoç is also the deputy group chair of the opposition party.

Works that have been carried out in the ancient site of Alacahöyük, one of the first archaeological excavations of the Republic era, aim to reveal the detailed cultural timeline of the 7,000-year-old city.

The 2021 season excavations at the Alacahöyük ancient site, where the first archaeological excavations of the Turkish Republic were carried out, will be resumed after the completion of the weed control that has been continuing since July 3.
