The opposition Turan News Agency of Azerbaijan will cease operations. Director Mehman Aliyev addressed readers in this regard on behalf of the Turan team.

“Due to persistent financial constraints, we can no longer sustain our news operations in their current form. Despite tireless efforts to secure the necessary resources to continue, the financial difficulties that have plagued us for years have finally forced us to make the difficult decision to suspend the agency's activities in its present format.

This is not the end of our mission but rather an evolution. The information space is changing, and we recognize the need to adapt. In the coming months, we will explore new formats—ones that focus not only on news but also on analysis, identifying key issues, and proposing solutions. The future of journalism is not just about breaking news but about fostering understanding,” the respective statement reads, in particular.
