Your grief is our grief too.
We are always close to the Armed Forces of fraternal Türkiye and we support them with all our strength in the fight against terrorism.
I pray to Almighty Allah for the repose of the soul of the serviceman, who became Shehid, share the sorrow and grief of his relatives, and express my deep condolences to his family.
May Allah rest the soul of the Shehid in peace".
