In #Turkey, incidents of #gunviolence have increased by almost 75 percent since 2015, claiming the lives of more than 2,000 people last year alone.

On average, 15 people die from gun violence every day in Turkey. Our correspondents Shona Bhattacharyya, Ludovic de Foucaud and Mehmet Akgun report from #Istanbul.
