Crimean Muslims were extended the blessings of Ramadan. They were gratified by the aid extended by the IHH of Turkey.

IHH officials distributed food packages of cooking oil, sugar and pulses to 800 needy families in and around the Crimean capital Simferopol. Food packages were handed to the families at their houses.

Crimean Muslims, who have a history of suffering, exile and massacre, were moved during the delivery of aid. The families who received food packages expressed their gratitude and recited prayers.

An aged Crimean woman first recited two surahs from the Quran and said, "God bless Muslims of Turkey and help Crimean Muslims in Uzbekistan to return to their homeland."

The IHH delivered stationery materials to 1,500 students from İsmail Gaspıralı School. Another 150 orphans were given allowances and clothes.  

The foundation is planning to carry on relief activities in Crimea.
