Corroborated · Baku, Azerbaijan (approximate) · 2026-10-15 16:00 UTC

Middle East Eye reports that delegations from more than 10 countries, including Turkey, walked out of the CICA summit in Baku, Azerbaijan, as Israeli President Isaac Herzog began his speech on Thursday. Velayati, an adviser to Iran's Supreme Leader, as relayed by Tasnim News, says Turkey walked out during Herzog's speech and that a veiled student was barred from entry.

Verification

Corroborated: 2 independent sources.

Sources disagree on:

• Scope differs: Middle East Eye says delegations from more than 10 countries walked out, while Velayati (via Tasnim) names only Turkey.
• Only Velayati (via Tasnim) claims a veiled student was barred from entry; Middle East Eye does not mention this and no other listed source confirms it.

Details by origin

Each detail, with the independent origins that reported it. An origin is the outlet or channel where a claim first appeared; reposts count once. A row counts no more independent origins than the event does above; where it lists more, it says so. This counts reports: it is not a measure of accuracy, and it does not change the event's status. "Reports differ" means two origins gave values that cannot both be true; it is about that detail, not about whether the incident happened.

Not stated in any report: time.

This table may include reports the automated review judged to be about another incident.

The disagreements listed under Verification are written by the automated review; this table is computed by rules, so the two lists can differ.
