Türkiye's communications chief dismisses baseless claims about president's health, says Erdogan is on duty with great strength, health and vigour
The claims came after Erdogan on Tuesday cut a live interview short due to an upset stomach.
The Communications Directorate's centre for combating disinformation on Wednesday also hit back at the claims on some social media accounts that Erdogan"had a heart attack and was hospitalised," saying they did not reflect the truth. “I was with him this morning ... He is in good health,” Health Minister Fahrettin Koca said on Thursday.
