A member of a Turkish opposition party needed hospital treatment on Tuesday after a brawl broke out in the country’s Parliament during a tense debate over next year’s budget.
Politicians from President Recep Tayyip Erdogan’s ruling party and from opposition parties fought each other, Tv footage showed.
Some politicians threw punches, while others tried to pull their fighting colleagues apart.
At least one politician was knocked to the ground, video images showed.
The private DHA news agency said Huseyin Ors, a politician from the opposition Good Party, was punched in the face.
A politician who is a trained doctor tended to Mr Ors, who was then taken to a hospital by ambulance, DHA reported.

Mr Ors suffers from heart problems and was placed under emergency care as a precaution.
Fighting is a frequent occurrence in Turkey’s Parliament.
It was not immediately known what caused Tuesday’s brawl, but tension is running high before presidential and parliamentary elections scheduled for June.

Emiratisation at work
Emiratisation was introduced in the UAE more than 10 years ago
It aims to boost the number of citizens in the workforce particularly in the private sector.
Growing the number of Emiratis in the workplace will help the UAE reduce dependence on overseas workers
The Cabinet in December last year, approved a national fund for Emirati jobseekers and guaranteed citizens working in the private sector a comparable pension
President Sheikh Khalifa has described Emiratisation as “a true measure for success”.
During the UAE’s 48th National Day, Sheikh Khalifa named education, entrepreneurship, Emiratisation and space travel among cornerstones of national development
More than 80 per cent of Emiratis work in the federal or local government as per 2017 statistics
The Emiratisation programme includes the creation of 20,000 new jobs for UAE citizens
UAE citizens will be given priority in managerial positions in the government sphere
The purpose is to raise the contribution of UAE nationals in the job market and create a diverse workforce of citizens
