Erdoğan's Controversial Post Regarding Cyprus
July 20, 2025
Turkish President Erdoğan made a post for the anniversary of the Turkish invasion of Cyprus, mistakenly using a photo depicting members of EOKA. The post was deleted shortly after being published and replaced with another image. Erdoğan extended his wishes to the Turkish Cypriots and honored fallen soldiers. The photo sparked reactions, and the Verification Line confirmed it depicted EOKA members from 1964.
