Turkish Ambassador to Bangladesh Mustafa Osman Turan on Thursday sought help from Bangladesh as the country is struggling to overcome the enormous challenges of being hit by twin earthquakes and many aftershocks. He said they are not interested in receiving cash support but winter clothes and medicines and other materials are preferred from Bangladesh. In a media briefing at the Embassy, the Ambassador expressed gratitude to the government and people of Bangladesh for coming forward instantly after the earthquakes. He said the next one or two days will be very crucial to save more lives. Referring to the Bangladeshi search and rescue team of 46 experts comprising military, fire service, and others, the Turkish diplomat said the team would operate in Gaziantep where people were still trapped in the rubble.
