Gazans perform hallelujah sajdah on runway of Etimesgut Airport

Etimesgut Airport is now an airport where Gazans make a 'grateful' prostration on its runway. The most prominent planes are the 'Koca Yusuf'—in other words, Türkiye's A400M strategic transport planes. Just like the 'stork carrying the world' in its logo, these days, Koca Yusuf transport planes are carrying the heaviest burdens of humanity. Some passengers have lost arms or legs, and all of them have lost their homelands. They are the ones whose deaths the world has witnessed, while Türkiye extends a helping hand to the oppressed people of Gaza. There is a child in someone's arms, with traces of bombardment still on their face. The little cat on their clothes is at peace, but there is so much fear in their eyes. A girl child tightly holds the hand of a Turkish healthcare worker, as if saying, 'Never let me go.' Another is being lowered with a foldable stretcher. Their hands and faces are covered in 'black soot,' and their head is bandaged. Among them is another person who is still crouched in fear. His large eyes tell the meaning of 'coming back from death.' The vein is open on the back of his right hand, while the other wrist is bent. The vast world couldn't hold onto these hands. And there is a father running down from 'Koca Yusuf.' He closes in on the runway of Etimesgut Airport, kisses the ground, and expresses gratitude. Whether he says 'Thank goodness for Türkiye ' is unknown, but he shows his gratitude to Allah by raising his index finger in testimony. In those moments, the eyes of the healthcare worker focus on this image that touches these 'consciences.' This father's son, dressed in yellow sweatpants, still carries the pitch-black dust of bombardment. Yesterday, the 6th evacuation flight from Gaza to Türkiye was carried out. 101 patients and injured individuals, along with 106 companions, were brought to Ankara. The patients were transported by ambulances to Bilkent and Etlik City Hospitals, as well as Yenimahalle Education and Research Hospital. Healthcare workers individually wiped away the 'black' marks on the faces of these 'deeply wounded' children... But the 'pitch-black mark' on the face of humanity is darkening even more each day in Gaza with Israel's bombings targeting civilians.
