A cargo plane took off to transport more than 60 tons of relief aid from the US to the earthquake victims in Syria and Türkiye.
“This aid includes winter clothes, tents, and everything necessary for survival at the first stage. Aid keeps coming. We will continue to collect these aids and send them with Turkish Airlines as before,” said Deputy Ambassador Sinan Ertay.
On the other hand, Sıtkı Kazancı, the head of the Turkish-American Association, said that their association has raised $200,000 to be donated to the earthquake victims.
Being organized by the Turkish Embassy in Washington, the aid was supported by Atlas Air, Turkish Airlines, Boeing, DVS and Jet Aviation.
