IGU Rector Prof. Dr. Bahri Sahin met with Palestinian students

Istanbul Gelisim University Rector Prof. Dr. Bahri Sahin met with Palestinian students with the "Independent Palestine" event. Stating that there are 208 Palestinian students studying at IGU, Sahin said, "We are with you financially and morally with all our means."

Revealing Israel's response to its occupation of the Palestinian people and its unprecedented policy of persecution, Istanbul Gelisim University (IGU) organized an "Independent Palestine" event to support Palestinian students. Stating that history will not forget those who remained silent about this massacre, IGU Rector Prof. Dr. Bahri sahin said, "As both our university and Turkey, we condemn the massacre and genocide committed by the Israeli state and we do not remain silent. We have 208 Palestinian students studying at our university. Your pain is our pain. We gathered to hear requests and concerns. We are with you financially and morally with all our means."

"Being in unity and solidarity shows that it is time to join hands"

Listening to the feelings and thoughts of Palestinian students, Rector Prof. Dr. Bahri Sahin stated that the demands of the students will be resolved as soon as possible, "Palestine is not only the problem of our brothers in Palestine, Palestine is the problem of all humanity. We do not find it surprising that the opponents of Islam do not speak out about the slaughter of Israel, but we find it incomprehensible that the Islamic community would do the same. Our Palestinian brothers are resisting, young and old, with their baby swaddled in their arms. This incident shows that the time has come for the Islamic world to be in unity and solidarity and to join hands."

“There is a glorious resistance in Palestine”

Stating that the Palestinian people have shown successful resistance despite all the absences and impossibilities, Prof. Dr. Senol Durgun, Head of the Department of Political Science and Public Administration of IGU Faculty of Economics, Administrative and Social Sciences, said, "Palestine is under intense bombardment. We are in an unimaginable predicament. The Middle East's topography is clearly marked by ongoing persecution and suffering, but in my opinion, the place closest to the light is also the one facing the worst darkness. The situation shows this. There is a glorious resistance in Palestine today.''
