Turkish miners concluded a 27-day underground protest after reaching a wage agreement with their employer, Özşen Madencilik. The protest, organized by members of the Independent Mine Workers’ Union (Bağımsız Maden-İş), centered on unpaid wages, overtime pay, severance claims, and concerns over dismissals. The miners had remained underground in a coal mine located in Uzunköprü, Edirne province, to demonstrate their demands. Following negotiations, a deal was reached, prompting the miners to end their hunger strike and emerge from the mine. The union confirmed the resolution, bringing an end to the prolonged labor dispute. Details of the agreement have not been fully disclosed, but it appears to address the key concerns of the protesting workers.
