We are the trade unions and professional organizations representing Türkiye’s workers, employers, civil servants, artisans, merchants, industrialists, farmers, and producers.​

The armed attacks carried out in schools in Şanlıurfa and Kahramanmaraş have deeply saddened our nation. Our grief is immense. A fire has been lit in all our hearts.

We pray to Allah for mercy upon our beloved teachers and students who lost their lives in the attacks, and we extend our deepest condolences and wishes for patience to their bereaved families, as well as our prayers for a speedy recovery to the injured.

We expect these attacks to be thoroughly investigated and brought to light, and for the necessary measures to be taken immediately to prevent their recurrence.
