Anadolu Agency exhibits defeated coup photos in Geneva Anadolu Agency will exhibit a collection of photos from the failed July 15 coup attempt in Turkey during the 33rd session of the U.N. Human Rights Council in Geneva, Switzerland.
The exhibit, which will be in front of Geneva's U.N. building, behind the monumental "Broken Chair" sculpture, will be on display from Sept. 27-29.
The photos taken by Anadolu Agency photojournalists, who followed the deadly events on the ground, show how the destructive night of July 15 unfolded and its aftermath.
One aim of the exhibit is to honor those who became martyrs and veterans during the illegal attempt to topple Turkish democracy.
The U.N. and other international organizations have been criticized for their responses to the coup attempt. In a statement issued four days after the foiled coup, the U.N. High Commissioner for Human Rights failed to condemn it, and an Anadolu Agency correspondent had to verbally prompt a U.N. spokeswoman to do so.
