ShareANKARA: The Kuwaiti medical team “shifaa” has conducted in the second day of its mission in southern Turkey with 14 surgeries for people wounded in the Turkey-Syria quakes and the Syrian war. The team had first commenced its charitable work in Turkey with support from the Kuwait Zakat House last February.

He thanked Kuwait Alms House for bearing costs of the surgeries. The Kuwaiti team has a seven-year experience of medical aid in southern Turkey.
