In the Turish Village (which means Turkish village) located 30 km away from the Djibouti capital, 200 food packages weighing 30 kgs each, was distributed.

The villagers, welcomed Turkish Ambassador Hasan Yavuz with flags of Turkey in their hands. During his speech at the village, Yavuz stated that "today we are delighted that we were able to keep our promise to you by delivering aid." Turkey is honored by your welcoming ceremony. Turkey has always been there for its African brothers, and will continue to always be there," he said.

Turkey is committed to fulfilling its duties towards Africa. Although the Turkish village in Djibouti is thousands of kilometers away from Turkey, the name has been protected for hundreds of years said Yavuz. He then continued by saying " Today we did provide aid, in fact we brought you the love and brotherhood of the Turkish public."
