Iranian Embassy: Fake news on weapons in train done by ill wishers of Iran-Turkey ties
[The] Press Section of IRI Embassy in Turkey here Wednesday strongly rejected claims on existence of munitions at cargo compartments of a train in eastern Turkey belonging to Iran, calling the initiators of such fake news "Ill wishers for two countries' expanding ties."Some Turkish media on Tuesday claimed the discovery of military equipment belonging to Iran at a cargo train heading for Syria. The Press Section communique of the IRI Embassy adds, "While denying the claim about spotting weapons attributed to Iran at one of the containers of the Turkish cargo train in Eastern Turkey, we announce that such baseless news are broadcasted every once in a while aimed at disturbing Iran-Turkey's good relations. That is while cooperation between the two countries at bilateral and regional levels are expanding, and such intrigues and immature marginal tricks cannot possibly harm such a good level of cooperation, or the high level political will of the two countries' leaders for ever improving ties."
