Turkey, Syria Earthquakes: Turkish Woman Kisses Indian Army Officer To Express Gratitude
This is so heartwarming!
A very powerful earthquake shook Turkey early Monday morning and the tremors were felt as far away as Lebanon and Israel. In Turkey, over 2,921 people were killed, and more than 15,800 were injured. In Syria, fatalities totalled 1,451. Foreign nations and non-governmental organizations are offering assistance and mobilizing supplies and rescue teams to help Turkey and Syria in the wake of the devastating earthquakes on Monday. The United Nations is leading the relief efforts.
An image of a Turkish woman hugging and kissing an Indian Army officer helping with relief efforts in Turkey’s Hatay has been spreading like wildfire over the internet. This touching moment happened after the devastating earthquake that hit the region earlier this week, leaving a trail of destruction and loss of life in both Turkey and northern Syria. The Indian Army officer was part of a team of rescue personnel deployed to provide assistance to those affected by the earthquake. The woman’s gesture of gratitude for the officer’s help and compassion has resonated with many around the world.
