The heatwave affecting Türkiye is called Eyyam-ı bahur. In Istanbul, the heatwave, accompanied by high humidity, is causing even animals to suffer from the heat. So, the sheep that came to graze at Alibey Dam tried to cool off under the shade of Mağlova Kemer to protect themselves from the sun's rays.
The sheep huddling together and trying to stay in the shade created interesting scenes.
Due to the hot and dry summer days, the Mağlova Kemer, which was previously submerged underwater, has now completely resurfaced, as well.
