Altay stated that they have set up the "Konya Tent" in the Payas district of Hatay for Ramadan and added, "In the tent, we have set up, 2,000 citizens break their fast with us, and 3,500 citizens share the blessings of suhoor with us. In addition, 23,000 Ramadan food baskets that we have sent with the district municipalities will be distributed to earthquake victims. We are working intensively to alleviate the hardship in earthquake-stricken areas. Just as we have been standing by the people of Hatay from the beginning, we will not leave them alone during Ramadan. I believe that we will overcome these difficult times with a strong sense of solidarity."
