All kinds of videos are about the unrest in the area on social media. Some videos, such as a bomb that falls at a school, are clearly fake. But there are also real images of a mistreatment. “There you can see how far they can go, that also shows how bad the situation is,” says Karakus.
According to him, the police also have a lot of work on fake images that appear online. “That causes a lot of unrest in children and in parents,” says Karakus. He says he also wants to warn parents and children about the fake images. “Don’t fall for it.”
Karakus also says that it is not new to the police that there are rival groups, as is now the case. “What is new: the intensity on social media, and a lot of fake films and fake messages. That has caused a lot of unrest. We see that increasing.”
Finally, Karakus understands the parents who were worried about their children. “Then you get that they express their concerns to the schools, and that the schools will say: is it wise to keep the schools open, or should we create peace? In fact, it was safe today.”
