Several Somali enterprises have been the target of a fascist attack in the Turkish capital Ankara’s central Kızılay neighborhood, in less than a week after a newspaper’s racist reporting on Somali nationals, “An irresponsible headline that you publish in a newspaper is causing all this,” journalist Fırat Fıstık wrote on his Twitter account.
The attack came after daily Sözcü released a news report titled “Central Ankara has turned into Somalia” on April 15.
The daily shared the news piece with the following sentence: “Business people and refugees coming from Somalia have altogether turned two streets in Kızılay into their own country.”
