Protest outside Russia consulate in Istanbul over Syria

Turkish students protested on Sunday outside the Russian consulate in Istanbul over Moscow's military support for President Bashar al-Assad's regime in Syria.
"Russia murderer, go away from Syria!" chanted several dozen students who called for an end to the siege on Syria's second city, Aleppo. The protest came as Moscow and Damascus denied claims by Ankara that the regime was responsible for an air strike that killed four Turkish soldiers last month. A similar demonstration against Russia's backing of Assad took place on Friday, outside Istanbul University in which demonstrators called for "imperialist Russia to leave Syria".
