EC/261 eligibility for a multi-flight itinerary only partly in the EU

score:15

For the stated itinerary, when flying on a non-EU carrier as you are, EU261 covers flights 3 and 4, presuming that there is no extended layover between these two flights.

Flight 3 is clearly covered by the legislation. Flight 4 is covered as a result of a court case a few years ago that concluded that EU261 covers the connecting flight as well, even if that flight is entirely outside of the EU.

EU261 does NOT cover flights beginning outside of the EU where those flights are not flown by an EU carrier, so does not cover either flights 1 or 2.

However, Turkey has it's own airline passenger rights legislation that roughly mirrors the EU legislation, with similar compensation for cancelations. You can find a copy of these regulations here. All 4 of your flight should be covered by the Turkish version.
