Seyhan River struggling as Algae invade it

The river has turned into a swamp.

In the past, people used to take photos with blue water and green nature, and there were suspension walkways on the river. However, now the river has become stagnant, and the water remaining in the basin has turned into a swamp, leading to an increase in flies in the area. The inadequate pesticide spraying efforts throughout the city were partially attributed to the condition of the river. Citizens are demanding the basin be cleaned immediately.
