“We have broken ground for the houses we have begun to build in the various districts of Kahramanmaraş. We will inshallah deliver these houses together with the ones we will break ground for to their owners within a year. We will neither stop nor rest until we revive our cities,” Erdoğan said.

“We have always defended our flag, our independence, our future and our country, entrusted to us by our martyrs, whatever it takes,” Erdoğan said in a speech he delivered at the iftar dinner, and added: “Thanks to our cross-border operations, we have made the separatist terrorist organization unable to move in Syria and Iraq. Let me reiterate before you that our operations will continue inside and outside our borders until the last terrorist is no longer a threat to country and nation.”
