Türkiye's Communications Director Fahrettin Altun has credited the country for facilitating the largest prisoner exchange operation in recent history, involving 26 individuals from seven different countries.

The exchange, which took place amid rising tensions in the region, highlights Türkiye's diplomatic prowess, according to Altun.

In a statement released today, Altun emphasized Türkiye's role as a "diplomatic heavyweight" capable of bridging divides between global adversaries.

Turkish intelligence is said to have played a crucial role in establishing communication channels and mediating the complex negotiations.

President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan's leadership is being praised for Türkiye's continued commitment to peace and stability in the international arena.

The country is now focusing on creating platforms for dialogue and mediation to address other global conflicts. (ILKHA)
