Fadila Daher, a cancer patient, and Dina Okasha, injured in Israeli airstrikes on Gaza, passed away in a Turkish hospital.

Funeral prayers were performed at Haji Bayram Veli Mosque, and their bodies were laid to rest in the Qarshi Yaka cemetery in the Turkish capital.

Türkiye had previously announced its commitment to transporting and providing medical treatment for patients and individuals injured in the ongoing Israeli aggression on Gaza.

The zionist occupation army has been conducting attacks on Gaza for the past four months with support from the US and Europe.

Israeli airstrikes have targeted hospitals, civilian buildings, towers, and homes, causing widespread destruction and hindering the entry of essential supplies like water, food, medicine, and fuel.

Since October 7, the death toll in Gaza has risen to 24,100, and the number of injuries has reached 60,834. (ILKHA)
