Since the beginning of the Syrian civil war there years ago, around 300 TIRs with aid materials valued at TL 55 million have been provided for the refugees by Kimse Yok Mu.

The campaign coordinated by the Humanitarian Aid Platform to provide aid to people suffering from a three-year-long civil war in Syria, has launched on January 22. The project encompasses 17 Turkish civil society associations such as the Red Crescent (Kızılay), the charity Kimse Yok Mu (Is Anybody There), the charity Deniz Feneri (Lighthouse), the Humanitarian Aid Foundation (İHH), the international Union of NGOs of the Islamic World (UNIW), and the Turkey Volunteer Association Foundation (TGTV). The project is also supported by the Prime Ministry’s Disaster and Emergency Management Directorate (AFAD).

Turkish business suffers under Erdogan’s post-coup Gulen purge

Critics of the ruling AKP expect it to sell Gulen-linked companies to government allies in the business world at a large discount. In mid-October the AKP-linked Metro Holding applied to the TMSF to acquire all of Koza Ipek Holding’s shares. Akin Ipek, the fugitive former owner of the conglomerate, asked on Twitter how Koza Ipek’s $600 million in cash and $20 billion in mining assets could be acquired by a comparatively unimpressive entity. Metro Holding’s capital comes to just over $95 million.

The government’s fury is understandable but it should distinguish between those who took part in the coup and those who simply belonged to the Gulen movement.
