Al Jazeera said the stoppage disrupted public transport and industry, while The Guardian described it as a 24-hour strike with high participation across sectors. The Guardian reported that millions joined, but CNBC and Anadolu Agency reported tensions or clashes without giving a shared participation figure or a detailed account of those incidents.
