Bekbele Mah. · İskenderun · Hatay
Same place, formerly a town. Until 2014 this was the town (belde) of Bekbele; when Law 6360 abolished the municipality it became today's neighborhood. The pre-2014 results on this page belong to that period; we combined them on one page so the place's history reads continuously.
