The French President, Emmanuel Macron, has promised to commit every available resource to contain the flames from the raging wildfires. In Spain, the prime minister, Pedro Sanchez, has warned of difficult times ahead with temperatures forecast to hit forty Celsius from Tuesday. Also, the United Nations body which fights AIDS has said the world risks a resurgence of ‌the HIV epidemic due to funding cuts. President Trump has told reporters that the US is in "very deep talks with Iran" but that he would be ready for "strong military action" if diplomacy failed. In Kenya, activists launch a high-profile legal case which claims hazardous pesticides and herbicides that are meant to make farming more efficient have been harming people's health. Gianni Infantino, the head of football's world governing body, FIFA, has told critics of his handling of several high-profile controversies at the recent men's World Cup that they had missed the joy and togetherness experienced by millions of fans.

  • This is what most people come to Antalya for.

  • Beach, sun and not much else.

  • And that's fine.

  • But head inland just a little and you can experience a different kind of Antalya at Kaprulu Canyon National Park.

  • One of Turkey's most accessible places for adventure sports and personal favorite spot of local guide, Berfin of Selik.

  • You can spend your whole day here.

  • First, you should go to the canyon to do a rough thing.

  • But there is so much more than that.

  • Yes, it's not just adrenaline that's to be found in these hills.

  • High above the river, the pillars of Adam rocks surround the ruins of the ancient city of Selge,

  • an ancient city that's been here far longer than the rafting routes.

  • Selge is like a gem waiting to be discovered.

  • So it's not exactly what you expected from a day in Antalya, but that's exactly the point.

  • Book your next detour at goturkia.com today.

  • Running a business shouldn't feel like surviving a software group project.

  • One app for accounting, another for inventory, another for sales.

  • And somehow, none of them talk to each other.

  • That's where Odoo comes in.
