Traffic suspended in Istanbul's Bosphorus Strait

ISTANBUL

Ship traffic in Istanbul's Bosphorus Strait was suspended on Saturday in both directions, Anadolu has learned.

A source said the traffic was disrupted due to entangled nets of fishing boats in front of Istanbul's Anadolu Kavagi.

The strait connects international ship traffic from the Black Sea to the Sea of Marmara and further on to the Mediterranean Sea.
