Turkish police dispersed with water cannon Saturday thousands of protesters who had gathered in Taksim Square in Istanbul.
The crowd quickly dispersed, while trucks equipped with water cannon took up positions in several entries of the square, theater of mass demonstrations against the government for three weeks in late May and mid-June .
It was the first major gathering since one week Taksim Square, where residents of the place have drummed with pots and pans in solidarity with the protesters.
“Police, do not betray your people,” chanted the demonstrators.
