What is the truth behind the circulating video showing dozens of Turkish helicopters flying in the sky of Amadiyah district in Dohuk?
A video clip has been circulated on social media with a caption alleging that “Dozens of Turkish helicopters roaming in the skies of Amadiya district in Dohuk Governorate.”
The truth:
The claim attached to the video is misleading. The video depicts military maneuvers in May 2024 in the western Izmir Governorate, Turkey, and not in the Dohuk Governorate in northern Iraq as suggested by the circulating claim.
This misinformation coincides with Turkish forces establishing new military points in the north of Dohuk Governorate in the Kurdistan Region of Iraq under the pretext of “pursuing the Kurdistan Workers’ Party”.
