This video went viral amid the ongoing calls for a Turkey boycott. It came after the country openly showed its support for Pakistan amid its conflict with India.
Pakistan launched strikes on India following Operation Sindoor. This op destroyed terrorist infrastructure sites in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Jammu and Kashmir in retaliation for the deadly Pahalgam attack that claimed the lives of 25 Indians and a Nepali citizen.
