Turkey returns seven Syrian children under state protection to Syrian authorities

Turkey transferred seven children under state care to Syrian authorities in Damascus. The handover was overseen by Mahinur Özdemir Göktaş, the Minister of Family and Social Services, during her visit to the Syrian capital.

This action follows previous repatriations of Turkish citizens from abroad. The transfer of these children, who were under state protection, to Syrian officials indicates a complex process of managing vulnerable populations amidst ongoing regional instability. The specific circumstances of the children and their families remain a sensitive aspect of this development.
