Starting October 15 morning Turkish users of the Facebook have been actively discussing a video called “Shots of brutal treatment in the Turkish armed forces” demonstrating officers who are beating and insulting soldiers.

The Turkish press also made a fuss, as they initially thought the video depicted Turkish army. In the video Turkic words are heard as well. However, according to another version, the video was shot in the Azerbaijani army, as the portraits of the Aliyevs, father and son, as well as Azerbaijani flag were hung on the walls.

A number of Turkish outlets reported that the video is a provocation by Kurds who are well aware of the fact that it was shot in Azerbaijan. However, they posted it to defame the Turkish army.

The video appeared on the Internet over a year ago, but has recently reached Turkey.
