10,000 completely furnished, insulated shelters were provided by Qatar Fund for Development (QFFD) to more than 15 different cities and towns throughout Southeast Turkiye over the course of the three months that followed the earthquake, the organisation said in a statement today.

This means that all 10,000 mobile homes used by Qatar during the FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022 have been sent to Turkiye

QFFD delivered the last of the mobile homes used to shelter the afflicted families as part of the State of Qatar’s response to the tragic earthquake that struck Turkey and Syria in February 2023.

Over sixty thousand people were killed and many more were injured as a result of the earthquake, which was unprecedented in its size and scope of devastation in recent history, in both Turkey and Syria.

Thousands of structures were demolished, and many more became dangerous for habitation.
