Gaziantep: Advisor at the Royal Court and King Salman Humanitarian Aid and Relief Center (KSrelief) Supervisor General Dr. Abdullah bin Abdulaziz Al Rabeeah on Wednesday conducted an inspection visit to the housing units delivered to earthquake victims in Trkiye.
The project includes 364 residential units located in the Islahiye area of Gaziantep province.
During the visit, beneficiaries of the project expressed profound gratitude to the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia for providing these residential units through humanitarian arm KSrelief.
They emphasized that these temporary housing units are of high quality, modern design, and meet essential living needs for families and individuals. They also noted that such gestures are not surprising from the government and generous people of the Kingdom.
KSrelief has supplied 3,000 housing units for earthquake victims in Syria and Trkiye, including 1,500 temporary housing units for those affected by the earthquake in the Afrin region of Syria’s Aleppo Governorate. Each tem
porary housing unit consists of two rooms and a bathroom equipped with basic furniture.
Other Saudi-provided facilities include a school accommodating 756 individuals, a mosque for 700 worshippers, 20 caravans for administrative and commercial activities, 15 playground areas for children, and a water well.
Solar-energy units and infrastructure works also were provided for all housing units.
About 1,500 temporary housing units were also provided for earthquake victims in the districts of Islahiye and Nurdagi in Gaziantep province, as well as in Adiyaman and Malatya provinces in Trkiye. These units also consist of two rooms and a bathroom with basic furniture, benefiting a total of 12,000 individuals.
Meanwhile, efforts are underway to provide 1,000 temporary housing units in three areas in Hatay province, expected to benefit 5,000 individuals.
These efforts come as an extension of relief projects provided by the Kingdom through its humanitarian arm, KSrelief, aimed at alleviating the suffering of those af
fected by the earthquakes in Syria and Trkiye.
