Ecumenical Patriarch Bartholomew has strongly denounced the recent terrorist attack on the Turkish Aerospace Industries (TUSAŞ) facilities in Ankara, emphasizing that “every terrorist act is, in reality, an assault on social peace and a tragic absurdity.”
The Patriarch offered prayers for the souls of the innocent victims to find peace and for their grieving families to find strength. He conveyed his deepest condolences and the full support of himself and the Ecumenical Patriarchate to those impacted by the tragedy. Furthermore, he expressed sincere wishes for a speedy recovery for the injured.
