The villages of Belpınar and Mesthüyük in the Nurdağı district of Gaziantep and the village of Özbek in the Türkoğlu district of Kahramanmaraş were among those receiving new homes.

In his speech, Erdoğan expressed confidence that his government would successfully complete the largest housing and urbanization mobilization in the history of the Turkish Republic.

He stated that following the earthquake disasters on February 6, construction began within 15 days on 650,000 new homes in the earthquake zone, including 507,000 residences and 143,000 village houses.

The president indicated that construction had started on over 105,000 houses, with groundbreaking ceremonies held for new residences and village houses in every affected city.

Erdoğan highlighted that the government is not only building houses, but also creating new living spaces with schools, healthcare centers, markets, green areas, and parks.

He also noted that the government is renewing infrastructure in both the collapsed areas and entire cities, with the creation of small industry sites for employment. (ILKHA)
