Deputy Culture and Tourism Minister Gürkan Yazgı has announced a groundbreaking initiative where nearly 2,000 ancient Hittite tablets, housing millennia-old historical records, are being deciphered by artificial intelligence.

The endeavor marks the world's first attempt at leveraging AI to unravel the mysteries concealed within the ancient artifacts.

Türkiye's defense, interior and culture and tourism ministries have started a joint effort to retrieve historical artifacts smuggled out of Syria by terrorists in the region, local media has said.

A large number of historical artifacts have been seized so far from smugglers who took advantage of the turmoil in Syria and terrorists organizing plans for them.
