Statement from the DMM regarding claims that 'an attempt was made to take down the Turkish flag in Azerbaijan'

In a statement made on the DMM's social media account, it was stated: "Claims appearing in some media outlets and social media accounts that 'an attempt was made to take down the Turkish flag in Azerbaijan' contain disinformation.

The images in question are old. At the time the images were filmed, the first and harshest reaction to the provocateur attempting to carry out a negative act against our flag came from our Azerbaijani brothers themselves.

No such situation as the taking down of the Turkish flag has occurred.

Those who edit old content and circulate it as if it were new by taking it out of context are targeting the bonds of friendship and brotherhood between Turkey and Azerbaijan. The public is kindly requested to be sensitive and cautious against such perception operations."
