Israel has deployed aid workers as part of 'Operation Olive Branch' to assist the people of Turkey and Syria following the deadly earthquake that both countries have endured. Over 5,000 people, and counting, have lost their lives in this catastrophe.

Our hearts are with the families and loved ones of the victims of this disaster.

TURKEY NEEDS YOUR HELP

IM BEGGING YOU YOUR ONE DOLLAR MATTERS A LOT FOR US HERE IS 5 SITES YOU CAN DONATE IT IS NOT A SCAM WE ARE SEEKING FOR HELP SINCE YESTERDAY AT 4AM WHEN THE FIRST EARTHQUAKE HAPPENED

[aliz5karga]

Fuck the government.

I'm still angry. I'm still not surprised. I'm still holding my tears since it happened. We've lost more than 40,000 people. More than 30,000 died in Turkey and more than 5,000 died in Syria...

From all those who were killed in Turkey, how many of them would still be among us if the government stopped neglecting us and spent our fucking money to build and improve our infrastructure ? The « Earthquake tax » that was created after the İzmit earthquake (1999), all the money we gave since it was invented – where the fuck did it went ? We're talking about BILLIONS of dollars ! Where did it go ?!

...Oh ! Yeah, right, it was given to the State's friends who then proceeded to build crappy buildings – blatantly lying to people, to convince them to live in their unsafe buildings, by saying that they were earthquake-resistant when it wasn't true. All those people, from the government to their greedy and corrupted friends, THEY KILLED THOSE WHO DIED IN THE RUBBLE OF THEIR HOMES. And to top it all, Erdoğan has said that all those deaths and destroyed buildings “couldn't have been prevented”... Bffr. Earthquakes don't kill people, buildings do. If this government wasn't so greedy and corrupted, if Erdoğan wasn't so self obsessed and selfish, if those corporations weren't as shitty as the State, many of those we lost would still be among us right now.

Also, one thing we shouldn't forget is how systemic racism also played a role in this case. The majority of Kurds in this country lives in the South. Now, only people who choose to turn a blind eye to this issue will pretend that it isn't true/real, but the Kurdish community has always been a marginalized/oppressed community in Turkey. I mean, until 1991, Kurdish was officially a banned language and even after its legalization, there's still people who are persecuted by the authorities and the State solely over their Kurdish identity. I'll always talk about that man who was arrested in 2009 and spent the rest of his life in prison just because he spoke Kurdish. He died in prison because he spoke his mother tongue.

And even during this crisis, they still found a way to be racist. The government announced translation services in 7 languages except Kurdish. They've translated crucial earthquake information in multiple languages, including Pashto... except in Kurdish, when those who are mainly affected by earthquakes are Kurds.

They failed them. Many cities had to wait for days to finally receive aid when we all know that the first hours are crucial. Many cities were simply abandoned by the State. And let's talk about when the government thought that their ego was more important than lives : they restricted access to social media, like Twitter, when it helped rescuers to locate people stuck under the rubble. They also arrested people just because they dared criticize the government. Dozens have been arrested over "provocative posts". That's exactly what they did during the 2021 Turkey wildfires. Because just like back then, the government did a poor job. They failed, once again.

They don't give a damn about us. They never did. They blatantly show how much they don't see us as people but only as tools and workers. Where's the money going ? The money we keep giving to this stupid government?

We all know the answer, don't we ? It goes in Erdoğan's and his puppets' pockets. He spend OUR money on his stupid palace, and when he feels generous, he gives OUR money to his little friends. « 7-days national grief » my ass. He doesn't fucking care. He's doing this because the elections are coming soon and he wanna stay in power forever. Everything THEY, all the political parties, are doing isn't genuine – it all has to do with the incoming elections. It's an opportunity for them.

When will we put an end to this ? When will this stop ? When will enough be enough ?

PLEASE IF YOU DECIDE TO DONATE MONEY, DONATE TO KURDISH ASSOCIATIONS TOO (ex. Heyva Sor)

By the way, let's not forget Syria. They're also badly affected by the earthquakes. It's very hard to send help to those affected by the earthquakes because of the Assad regime and the Turkish gov. The sanctions against Syria also doesn't help. Talking about Syria, guess who decided it was the right time to bomb Syria? Isr*el, of course... They killed civilians and destroyed a historical building. It doesn't matter if it was owned by Iran-backed militias. it's just NOT the right time. Fuck you, Isr*el.

Hundreds of thousands of survivors of the earthquake that struck southern Turkey and Syria on February 6 sought refuge in the neighboring Turkish city of Mersin. The city administration claims they urgently need more assistance to handle the inflow.

Our favorite rendition

of a classic. Brought to you by the students at the Partners Learning Center you support in Domiz Camp, Kurdistan region of Iraq. Turn up the volume for some joy.

When nature calls

everyone should have a safe and easily accessible bathroom. So it was not ok to hear 50 earthquake-affected families at a shelter in Syria were sharing just one. The latrines you have since installed are now improving hygiene and making life a little easier for families who are already dealing with so much loss.

Shout out

to Scott Berry who last week started a fundraising page to raise support for Partners emergency relief response and raised 439% of his $2,000 goal (yes, that’s $8,775)! If you’re inspired like we are, you can start your own fundraiser here.

532,671

is the number of people displaced by Myanmar military activity in Karen State, Myanmar. We’re heartbroken. Our team returned from a relief trip to this region a few months ago where many of the education and health projects you support are located. One of our Karen Health projects staff shared of her experience:

"For almost two years, the villagers have lived in constant fear and insecurity. Some of them have given birth during this time, including one of our sewing trainers, who is nursing her baby. However, due to the lack of access to medical care, some children have died.

One of my Village Health workers (VHW), recently lost his two-year-old daughter due to severe illness, cold, and difficulty breathing. He was unable to bring her to the clinic at the time because the Myanmar military had surrounded their village, causing fear and preventing access to medical care. This young father is now filled with sadness."

This story. These children. They are why we are resolved to stay by our friends.

Grateful as always that you're there with us.

Your friends at Partners.
