We learned with deep sorrow the tragic loss of lives and extensive damage caused by the flooding and landslides after heavy rains in the Freetown peninsula in Sierra Leone on 14 August 2017.

We share the grief of the Sierra Leonean people, wish Allah’s mercy upon those who lost their lives and extend our condolences to their families.

At this difficult time, we reiterate our strong solidarity with the friendly and brotherly people of Sierra Leone. Turkey is ready to provide support with all possible means to Sierra Leone.
