Turkish Minister of Environment and Urbanization Murat Kurum launched a clean-up campaign against marine mucilage in Caddebostan and other provinces in the Marmara Sea on Tuesday. While mucilage continues in the provinces bordering the Marmara Sea, Caddebostan coast is cleaned up on the third day of campaign.
Pink oleander trees have transformed the mountain slopes of Kozan’s Memili Neighborhood in Adana, Türkiye, into a colorful spectacle. Despite being known as the “flower of death” due to their toxicity, the blooming trees are attracting photographers and nature lovers.
Local visitor Filiz Sakin said, “Although it’s called poisonous, oleander is also used in medicine. The late bloom this year was worth the wait.” The striking scenery was also captured with aerial drone footage.
