ISTANBUL
A Turkish charity said on Tuesday that they have provided aid to around 3,500 families in Gaza.
The charity has helped 3,500 families by sending propane cylinders, heaters, blankets and winter clothes to those in need, the Gaza Representative of the Humanitarian Relief Foundation, Mehmet Kaya, said in a statement.
Kaya added that the region was trying to recover after Israel’s attacks that began in July 2014.
A cease-fire was reached between the two sides on August 26, after 51 days of Israeli attacks on the Gaza Strip, which left around 2,160 Palestinians dead and more than 11,000 others injured.
