A meeting of Turkish officials turned violent when disagreements erupted over the cost of celebrating the country's founding.
The Ankara Metropolitan Municipality Council allocated a substantial sum for a concert featuring a well-known singer during the Republic Day celebrations.
Critics questioned the allocation of these funds, arguing that the cost of the celebrations is out of touch with the struggles faced by ordinary citizens.
The brawl broke out after the meeting had been adjourned, with lawmakers engaging in physical altercations.
