The death toll soared above 6,000 and was still expected to rise.

The Gaziantep Synagogue which had been empty and deserted for years since the 1980s, due to the fact that no Jews were left in Gaziantep, has opened its doors once again on December 26th, after the renovation executed by the Directorate General of Foundations.

In the ‘Synagogues of Turkey’ book by Naim Güleryüz and Izzet Keribar, the information below is written about the Gaziantep Synagogue:
During the Ottoman reign, the Gaziantep Jewish Community consisting of mainly the Jews that immigrated from Aleppo, had religiously existed affiliated to the Aleppo Rabbinate. The voyager and geographer Vital Cuinet is stating the Jewish population of Ayintap (Aleppo) in the 1880s as 857, and adding that there is a synagogue in the city. The Jewish population in the city had decreased to 327 in 1945, and to 152 in 1965. Especially as a result of the immigrations in 1975, no Jewish settlers were left in the city after 1980.

Should Jewish resources be used to help these soneh Yisrael? No! Syria is dedicated to israels destruction and turkey is openly hostile. Let them deal with it or all their Muslim brothers should send money. No Jewish money
