Firefighting teams have been struggling to contain a massive wildfire in the southern province of Antalya's Kemer district for the second consecutive day, as authorities have informed that approximately 180 hectares of land have been reduced to ashes as of late July 25, with extreme temperatures scorching Türkiye and the region.

Turkish sailors have rescued a French adventurer onboard his pedal-powered boat who had been sailing for a while but got lost at sea recently following a six-hour operation.

Many resort towns in Türkiye's coastal provinces have become overcrowded with holidaymakers as millions hit the road to stop by the coastal provinces to enjoy the sunny weather, beaches and sea during the Eid al-Adha holiday.

A first-emission 1,000 Turkish Lira banknote which was printed in the U.K. in 1927 was put up for sale at an online auction with an opening price of 800,000 Turkish Liras (nearly 60,000 dollars).

The banknote features a portrait of Mustafa Kemal Atatürk, founder of modern Turkey, on the front and an image of the Geyve strait section of the Sakarya railway line on the other side.
