Our Foundation has donated to the “Big Heart Foundation“, headquartered in the United Arab Emirates, which supports the “Tarahum* for Gaza” national campaign to show solidarity with Palestinian children and families affected by the ongoing war in Gaza, to alleviate their suffering and reduce its severity. A certificate of appreciation was presented to the Foundation by the Association for the donation.

Innocent Civilians, Women, Children And Infants Should Not Be Targeted By Missiles

Regarding the donation, Uğur Tatlıcı, Executive Board Member of our Foundation, said: “As it has been doing for more than fifty years, the Israeli government attacks places of worship and massacres innocent civilians, women, children and infants in Gaza. Firing missiles at a hospital where defenceless people are waiting for treatment is inhuman. No matter who does it for what purpose; it is unacceptable to make civilians, women, children and babies the target of missiles. Our anger is not against the Israeli people or Jews, but against the occupying and expansionist Israeli Administration. It is the humanitarian and moral duty of all of us to condemn this inhuman behavior and to support the cause of the Palestinian people, to resist oppression and to protect the oppressed. As a foundation, we supported the “Big Heart Foundation”, which operates for the friendly and brotherly Palestinian people who are victims of Israel’s unlawful occupation and persecution. On this occasion, we hope that diplomatic efforts will be concluded positively as soon as possible, Israel’s occupation and persecution will end and peace will be established permanently.”
