Turkish fans boo minute’s silence for Paris victims
  • 8 years ago
Turkish fans booed during a minute's silence held for the victims of the Paris attacks before their national team drew 0-0 with Greece in a friendly international football game at İstanbul's Fatih Terim Stadium on Tuesday.
The mark of respect was observed at matches across Europe, including at Wembley, where France played England, after radical terrorist Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant militants struck Paris on Friday, killing 129 people.
The minute's silence was held before the match started on Tuesday evening to show solidarity with France after 129 people were killed during a major terrorist attack in Paris on Friday.
However, the silence was protested by some spectators who booed and some others who shouted "Martyrs never die, the country will never be divided."
