A blast has occurred at the #Amara Culture Center in #Suruç district of #Urfa where members of the Socialist Youth Associations Federation (#SGDF) coming from various cities have been staying before their planned cross into #Kobanê to help the reconstruction works today.
Many casualties are reported at the scene.
Young and beautiful people from all over Turkey, gathered in Suruç,
to cross the border to the war-torn town of Kobane (Syria), and bring
smiles to childrens' faces by taking them toys, building for them
playgrounds and libraries. They represented determination, courage,
altruism, cohesion, selflessness. Their faces and smiles tell us much
about them.
Today, afternoon, a bomb took the lives of 31 activists in Suruç, Turkey at a press conference of a socialist youth federation.
Many more are wounded. Most of the dead were university students aged
18-22 who felt responsiblity to take a bold initiative in helping hands
on the warn-torn people of Kobane - a demolished town.
It was an attack by terrorists and their supporters against HOPE and COHESION. But this shall unite their causes further.
Many protests were organized later at night, to raise voice against the
massacre. Turkish government did not surprise, and in typical fashion,
devoid of conscience and common sense, attacked the protesters with
water, teargas and plastic bullets.
RIP
