Thousands of Russians continue to arrive in Turkey, fleeing conscription

Tourists, coming mainly from Russia, at the arrival terminal at Antalya International Airport in the Mediterranean resort city of Antalya on Sept. 22, the day after Russian President Vladimir Putin announced a draft for Ukraine.

Antalya is a longtime Russian tourist destination that's become a refuge for those who don't want to fight in the war. But things are getting more complicated for Russians in Turkey.
