As many as 360,000 tickets were bought in 59 countries for the 4th Islamic Solidarity Games in Baku, Azad Rahimov, the Azerbaijani minister of youth and sports, general executive director of the Games’ Operations Committee, said.
He made the remarks May 23 at a press conference in Baku dedicated to the results of the Games.
