Turkish Presidential Candidate Muharrem Ince Withdraws from Race, Boosting Erdogan's Main Rival

July 24, 2023 Published by GCNews AI

Muharrem Ince, a candidate in Turkey’s presidential election, has announced his withdrawal from the race. This decision is expected to benefit President Recep Tayyip Erdogan’s main challenger, Kemal Kilicdaroglu. Ince faced criticism for potentially splitting the votes of the Nation Alliance, a six-party coalition supporting Kilicdaroglu. There were concerns that Ince’s candidacy might lead to a second-round election. Ince stated that he was withdrawing for the sake of the country. Although his popularity had dropped to around 2% in opinion surveys, Ince mentioned that his party, Homeland Party, would still participate in the parliamentary elections and urged voters to support it. In the previous presidential election in 2018, Ince had run against Erdogan as part of the main opposition party but later formed his own party.

BBC — Sudan crisis: Air strikes hit Khartoum despite truce

Air strikes have been hitting Sudan’s capital, Khartoum, despite a truce aimed at letting civilians flee. The army says it is attacking the city to flush out its paramilitary rivals, the Rapid Support Forces (RSF). The fighting has increased even though the warring sides have said they would prolong the truce by another three days. More than 500 deaths have been reported, with millions of people still trapped in Khartoum. Army commander Gen Abdel Fattah al-Burhan and RSF chief Gen Mohamed Hamdan Dagalo are competing for power and have differing views on plans to include the RSF in the army. The generals have agreed to a humanitarian truce, but it remains unclear what will happen in the next stage of the deal arrived at with US and Saudi mediation, according to the army. The World Food Programme has reversed its decision to pull out of Sudan and has resumed operations in the country.

NBC — ISIS leader killed in Syria, Turkish President Erdoğan says

Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan has announced that Turkish intelligence forces killed Abu Hussein al-Qurashi, the leader of the Islamic State militant group, in Syria. The operation was carried out in the northern Syrian town of Jandaris, which is controlled by Turkey-backed rebel groups. The Syrian National Army did not comment on the operation. ISIS chose al-Qurashi as its leader in November after its previous leader was killed in an operation in southern Syria. ISIS lost control of its territory after campaigns by U.S.-backed forces in Syria and Iraq, as well as Syrian forces backed by Iran, Russia, and various paramilitaries. The U.S.-led coalition, along with a Kurdish-led alliance known as the Syrian Democratic Forces, is still carrying out raids against ISIS members in Syria. Some senior ISIS figures have been targeted while hiding out in areas where Turkey has major influence.

ASSOCIATED PRESS — Israeli airstrikes on Gaza kill Palestinian as violence ebbs

Israeli airstrikes on the Gaza Strip killed one man and injured five others on Wednesday in response to rockets launched by Palestinian militants. The exchange of violence began after a prominent Palestinian detainee, Khader Adnan, died in Israeli custody after an 87-day hunger strike. Palestinian militants fired 100 rockets into southern Israel, and the Israeli military responded by striking tunnels, arms production sites, and military installations in Gaza. The violence appeared to ebb as both sides signaled they wanted to avoid a wider conflict. The spike in violence comes at a time of heightened tensions in the occupied West Bank under Israel’s most right-wing government in history. Israel also demolished the family homes of two Palestinians who carried out deadly attacks against Israelis last fall.
