Turan said: "In the data announced by the Ministry of Health, we see that the increase in cases in our city is serious. The data we received from the field indicate that the cases are increasing. According to this data, the number of cases is much higher than the Ministry of Health announces. The number of cases in Diyarbakır is 300, sometimes 400. One day it was 600 in a day.
