7:51Now PlayingTurkey's President Recep Tayyip Erdogan has blamed opposition political parties for provoking a "movement of violence", as protests in the country continue for a sixth night.
Unrest began in Istanbul last Wednesday when the city's mayor Ekrem Imamoglu, Erdogan's main presidential rival, was detained on corruption charges.
Thousands of people gathered once again on Monday. Unrest had escalated on Sunday night, with protesters fired on with tear gas and rubber bullets.
Imamoglu, also suspended from his post as mayor, said the allegations against him were politically motivated, a claim denied by Erdogan.
