The last day, an ugly attack was carried out on the Atatürk monument in Samsun, which has now become one of the symbols of the city. The assailants, whose identity cannot be identified, tried to destroy the monument, where Atatürk was on a horse, by tying a rope to the horse’s hind legs in the evening hours. Then, it was determined that the attackers, who left the ropes where they were and fled, entered the park with a vehicle.
Within the scope of the ongoing investigation on the subject, it was shared that the vehicle was first detected, and then the interrogation of the two suspects was carried out.
The vigil started around the monument, the images are on social media
After the event resonated, the #Samsun hashtag became the agenda on Twitter. Photos and videos from the monument, where hundreds of people went to keep watch, became the most important agenda item on social media.
