Yashil yarpagh- a journal published in 1928 by Azerbaijani political refugees living in Turkey.[1]
The "Yashil Yarpagh" journal, published on June 16, 1928, was the third journal published by Azerbaijani refugees. It was less significant in terms of volume and influence compared to the journals "Yeni Kafkasya" and "Azeri Turk." The journal's address was listed as follows: Istanbul, Hilali-Əhmər street, across from Hagia Sophia. It was published by the "Orkhaniyya" press. The first article in the journal is titled "Ten years behind us." The second issue was released on July 5, 1928.[2] The journal consisted of 8 pages and its final issue was published on September 1, 1928. Mammad Sadıq Aran was the chief editor of the journal. Additionally, signatures of Erdoğan and Sisyanlı were also found in the journal.
In the header section of the journal, the statement "Published every 15 days with the pen of industrious Azerbaijanis, it is a public, political, independent nationalist magazine" is included.[3]

In the article titled "On Years Behind Us," featured in the first issue, the changes in the past ten years since Azerbaijan gained independence in 1918 are explained:
