Humanity and Solidarity at the Center of the Call

In his call, General President Ali Yalçın stated that the protests are not only a show of solidarity with the people of Gaza, but also a universal stance to protect human dignity.

We invite all my brothers and sisters, everyone with a conscience, to march/demonstrate for Gaza, for freedom, not to leave the Sumoud Flotilla activists alone."
