Early this morning, police forces arrived in Taxim with the purported goal of cleaning up the area. Upon their arrival, a small group of protesters attacked them with rocks and molotov cocktails. While many protesters suggest that this attack was staged, there is no proof to support this claim.

 

The police responded to the aggression using tear gas and water cannons in what eventually escalated into a new wave of police brutality.

The violence continued well into the night and is expected to continue through tomorrow, if not longer.

 

These pictures were all taken in Taxim Square today, Wednesday, June 11th.
