On 26 July 2026 a firearm was discharged in a garden gazebo at a villa in Aksaray, killing 61‑year‑old Mustafa Eriş. Three suspects fled the scene in separate vehicles toward Konya and Adana; police secured the area, collected evidence and opened a formal investigation.

A few days later, on 30 July 2026, a gun‑fire episode erupted at a kebab shop in the Güzelyalı neighbourhood of Çukurova, Adana. The clash stemmed from a land‑sale dispute involving real‑estate agent Baran Yücekaya. Two assailants opened fire, injuring several patrons; one victim, Samet Aksoy, later died. Police apprehended six suspects, including Yücekaya and members of his family, and charged them.

Both events illustrate a spate of firearm‑related violence in Turkey during late July 2026, prompting local law‑enforcement actions ranging from evidence collection and suspect pursuit in Aksaray to arrests and prosecutions in Adana.
