The Turkish government allowed people aged 65 and above to go out for eight hours of a partial curfew imposed on senior citizens and those with chronic diseases, from going out in public and walking in open areas such as parks and gardens. A curfew was implemented in 81 Turkish cities, including Istanbul, from 23 to 26 May 2020 to curb the spread of the ongoing pandemic of the COVID-19 disease caused by the SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus. The lockdown coincides with the festival of Eid al-Fitr, which marks the end of the Muslim fasting month of Ramadan. EPA/TOLGA BOZOGLU
