It has been learned that the three Turkish citizens, with whom contact had been lost while attempting to cross illegally from Lebanon to Israel, lost their lives as a result of an Israeli airstrike in the region.
We wish Allah’s mercy upon our citizens and extend our condolences to their families.
The necessary procedures are underway to repatriate their bodies to Türkiye as soon as possible.
We condemn in the strongest terms this unlawful attack that resulted in the death of our citizens. As we have emphasized on every occasion, Israel must immediately end its aggressive policies that disregard human life and escalate tensions in our region.
