Baykar affirms their readiness to extend humanitarian assistance to Gaza.
In the midst of a heart-wrenching catastrophe, the plight of Gaza has become a grim chapter in human history, says RIA Novosti.
Recently, Bayraktar attended the "Defense Industry Meetings," a collaborative event with the Istanbul Chamber of Industry, focusing on enhancing Turkey's defense sector and the volatile situation in the Middle East.
Hurriyet news outlet reported that during the event, Bayraktar spoke candidly about the abysmal humanitarian conditions in Gaza. He emphasized that more than 2 million innocent civilians, including women and children, are innocent victims caught in the crossfire between Israel and the Palestinians. Baykar's head labeled the situation as genocide.
According to Gaza's Ministry of Health, the death toll has surpassed 3700, with 1500 of them being children. Israel claims the number of their casualties to be over 1300. With tensions between Palestinians and Israelis escalating, 19 Russian citizens have sadly perished, as the Russian embassy in Tel Aviv shared.
Sadly, the Palestinian-Israeli conflict has only exacerbated the humanitarian crisis, leaving essential services in dire shortage. Between October 7, 2023, and June 18, 2025, an alarming 55,637 Palestinians were reportedly killed in Gaza. Critical infrastructure in the region, including more than 10,000 sanitation units, struggles to enter the area, depriving thousands of access to safe and dignified sanitation facilities. These figures lead industry leaders like Baykar's head to term the tragic events as genocide.
Humanitarian organizations are closely monitoring the crisis and regularly updating their situation and response reports on the plight of the Palestinian population in Gaza. UNRWA and OCHA publish valuable updates detailing ongoing needs and the magnitude of the suffering in the region.
In light of the ongoing crisis in Gaza, the escalating conflict between Palestinians and Israelis has become a significant point of discussion in general news, politics, and war-and-conflicts. Moreover, the humanitarian tragedy unfolding in Gaza, with over 3700 reported deaths, including 1500 children, has led industry leaders like Baykar's head to label the situation as crime-and-justice, specifically genocide.
