      It does seem to continually be a “hold my beer” moment. Sadly, perfectly expected from an apartheid state.

    @zephyreks I see sources on this community getting only better and better with time.

    After the Justice and Development Party (AKP) took power, AA and the Turkish Radio and Television Corporation (TRT) were both restructured to more closely reflect the administration line. According to a 2016 academic article, "these public news producers, especially during the most recent term of the AKP government, have been controlled by officials from a small network close to the party leadership.

    A Bellingcat article states that “AA as a whole can only be considered as blatant and deliberate twisting and distorting of the facts.”

    I must admit, it’s even better than Al-Jazeera./s

      Radwan Blaibla, head of Tulkarem Medical Syndicate, gave this statement to Anadolu reporters:

      “One injured was stabbed in his neck by (an Israeli) soldier while in the ambulance, posing danger to his life,”

      “Two (injured) others were forcibly taken out from the ambulance and were subject to kicking and beating by the rifles’ buttstocks on their injuries,”
