We made our evaluations, visited our tradesmen, visited workplaces, visited residences, saw stream beds. We looked at areas related to the forest region. Now, we will have a meeting soon and make an evaluation on what kind of solution will be produced in general, so that it does not happen here again. May God protect us from the worst. All our ISTAÇ, "As a state, our İSKİ, Fire Brigade, Sarıyer Municipality and Metropolitan Municipality are on the side of our nation. I hope such a thing will not happen again. However, the water coming out of the stream bed has flooded the basements, ground floors and shops of the houses. We will definitely be on the side of our nation by finding a solution without victimizing anyone."
