Participants of a gay pride event wave flags in Istanbul, Sunday, June 28, 2015. Turkish police used water cannons and tear gas to clear gay pride demonstrators from Istanbul’s central square. It wasn’t immediately clear why the police intervened to push the peaceful if noisy protest away from the area. Demonstrators regrouped a few blocks down the street and continued to dance and chant slogans against homophobia without any further clashes. (AP Photo/Emrah Gurel)
