The “Palestine Convoy,” which set off from Srebrenica in Bosnia and Herzegovina, arrived in the Turkish capital, Ankara, after crossing Albania and Greece and passing through Istanbul, as part of its solidarity journey with the Palestinian people.

The convoy, comprised of buses and cars, includes more than 500 activists from 20 countries. It arrived in the Kahramankazan district on Monday evening.

The convoy then proceeded from the Grand Mosque to the Ulus district of Ankara, accompanied by members of a civil society organization called the “Ankara Platform for Solidarity with Palestine.” Participants waved both Turkish and Palestinian flags.

A crowd of locals welcomed the convoy, chanting slogans such as: “Greetings to Gaza… the resistance continues,” “Free Palestine from the river to the sea,” and “Don’t remain silent… don’t be complicit in injustice.”

Alp Arslan Aydar, spokesperson for the Ankara Platform for Solidarity with Palestine, thanked all those who supported the convoy.

Aydar stated that Palestine is subjected to “systematic terrorism and expansionist policies practiced by Israel.”

He continued, “The Israeli regime today is an occupying power, not a legitimate state, and it does not belong to this land. Since October 7, 2023, this systematic terrorism has transformed into genocide, while the international community has merely stood by and watched.”

The “Palestine Convoy” is scheduled to continue its journey tomorrow to Konya Province, before proceeding towards the West Bank.

On October 8, 2023, Israel launched a genocidal war on Gaza, resulting in the deaths of more than 73,000 Palestinians and injuries to over 174,000, most of whom are children and women. Ninety percent of the infrastructure has been destroyed.

A ceasefire agreement was reached in October 2025, two years after the start of the genocide. However, Israel continues its daily violations of the agreement, resulting in the deaths of 1,250 Palestinians and injuries to 4,110 others as of Monday. Anadolu

Israeli colonists (settlers) carried out terrorist attacks against Palestinian residents and their property south of Nablus, Monday night, setting fire to agricultural land in the town of Beita and attacking Palestinian vehicles with stones near the village of Burin.

Local sources said that several colonists, under the protection of Israeli occupation forces, attacked the town of Beita and set fire to Palestinian-owned agricultural land, burning several trees.

In a separate attack, colonists hurled stones at Palestinian vehicles on the bypass road near the village of Burin, south of Nablus, endangering the lives of Palestinian residents. No injuries were reported.

The towns and villages of Nablus governorate have witnessed a significant escalation in colonist attacks, including the burning of agricultural land, assaults on residents, stone-throwing at vehicles, and the destruction of property. The attacks are carried out under the protection of Israeli occupation forces as part of a systematic policy aimed at intimidating Palestinians, restricting their movement and livelihoods, and seizing further Palestinian land according to the Wafa news agency.
