The vice dean of Selçuk University Faculty of Health Sciences, Dr. Müjdat Yeşildal, was shot by Bestami Serdar E., a graduate of the same faculty, who then attempted suicide.
The incident occurred on campus, prompting a rapid response from police and medical teams. Both Yeşildal and the suspect were taken to the hospital with life-threatening injuries. Authorities have launched an investigation into the attack.
Tortum Waterfall in Erzurum’s Uzundere district, one of Türkiye’s top natural landmarks, is experiencing a surge in water flow with the arrival of spring. Snowmelt from nearby mountains is raising the level of Tortum Lake, increasing the waterfall’s volume.
Local shopkeeper Ömer Faruk Özgelen said, “The lake is filling, and our waterfall will soon be overflowing.” The site, popular with tourists and photographers, is expected to attract more visitors in the coming weeks, boosting regional tourism.
