Alanya Mayor Osman Tarık Özçelik stated, "Cleaning riverbeds is crucial to prevent negative events during the winter months. Our teams are implementing an intensive work program throughout the city. Through these efforts, we aim to ensure the safety of our citizens and contribute to the protection of the natural environment."
