She had to emigrate from Syria four years ago. She said, “I felt happy when I heard people would do their best in solidarity with Nusaybin people and I wanted to join that. I know very well how the solidarity is important in hard times. Seeing some people with you makes you happy and we want to give this good feeling to these people. The people were with us when we came to here. We are with Nusaybin people and they should know that they are alone and we support them.”

Medine Tokgöz, who lives in the Dargeçit district of Mardin, states she is preparing winter food for those who live in tents or forcibly displaced families. Medine said, “As women, we are happy to be in solidarity with them. Let’s be in solidarity with Nusaybin people. We will overcome all difficulties with solidarity.”
