They are most propubly Uzbek or Hazara ethnic Afghan citizens. They don't have iranic face at all, all Asiatic faces. Does Turkey has any Turkic policy or aims in Afghanistan?

Funeral service held after 67 years for Turkish war hero Nuri Pasha

"A ceremony for Turkish war hero Nuri Killigil was held on Wednesday at Edirnekapı Martyrs Cemetery in Istanbul. Killigil, more commonly known as Nuri Pasha, was the brother of former War Minister Enver Pasha and a prominent Ottoman soldier.

Funeral rites were performed after a hiatus of 67 years in the presence of Killigil's family, Azerbaijani MP Ganire Paşayeva and officials from Istanbul Metropolitan Municipality.

Killigil was active in the Teşkilat-I Mahsusa (Ottoman secret service) in Italian-occupied Libya during World War One in an effort to disrupt allied movements in the region. Following the Ottoman defeat, Killigil took to the Caucasus and formed the semi-military unit known as the Army of Islam. This unit fought on behalf of local Muslim, Turkish and Azeri groups in the region, liberating Baku from Soviet-Tashnak and later British occupation. Eventually he fell captive to British forces but was freed during a daring raid by his colleagues.

In 1949, he died in an explosion along with twenty-eight others at a munitions factory in Istanbul's Sütlüce district. His body was retrieved from the Golden Horn after a period of ten days. But a ruling made by a leading cleric at the time, stipulating that funeral services could not be performed for dismembered bodies, meant that Killigil was buried in the absence of traditional Islamic funeral rituals.

But the recent publication of a biography by researcher Atilla Oral had prompted efforts to have his grave restored and for funeral rites to finally be performed."

The Battle of Baku in June – September 1918 was a clash between the Ottoman–Azerbaijani coalition forces led by Nuri Pasha and British forces led by Lionel Dunsterville, resulted with Ottoman–Azerbaijani victory.

Üzerinden 100 yıl geçmesine rağmen, Birinci Dünya Savaşı’nın Türkiye ve diğer ülkelere açtığı yaralar, Rusya’nın Pasifik kıyılarında restore edilen şehitlik açılışıyla tazelendi. Türkiye’ye yaklaşık 9 bin 700 km uzaklıktaki Vladivostok şehri yakınlarında Şkotovo kasabasında bulunan şehitlik, Rusya Federasyonu Uluslararası Askeri Anıtlar Birliği ile Türkiye’nin katkılarıyla restore edilerek hizmete girdi. Granitten Obelisk taş biçimindeki şehitlik anıtı üzerinde Rusça, Türkçe ve Macarca “Burada Birinci Dünya Savaşı’nda hayatını kaybeden Türk, Avusturyalı, Macar ve Alman savaş esirleri yatmaktadır” yazısı yer alıyor.

Uzbekistan approves mass prisoner amnesty
Uzbek Senate passes acting President Shavkat Mirziyoyev's proposal to release selected inmates ahead of Dec. 8

TASHKENT, Uzbekistan


The Uzbek Senate approved a mass amnesty of prisoners on Wednesday ahead of the Dec. 8 anniversary of the adoption of the country’s constitution.

The amnesty had been proposed by acting President Shavkat Mirziyoyev on Tuesday. It will apply to sentenced women, jailed individuals under the age of 18 and prisoners who are over 60, as well as some to foreign nationals.

People convicted of crimes described as posing no danger to society -- plus first-time offenders – will also be released.

Uzbekistan’s parliament named former Prime Minister Mirziyoyev as acting president following the recent death of Islam Karimov.

Karimov had ruled the country since the collapse of the Soviet Union in 1991.
