Turkish IHH and Malian ONG OCB celebrate Eid-Ul-Adha with the poor with 100 cows

Kidal/ Adnan Adams

Turkish charity organization, IHH, has collaborated with the Malian ONG OCB to fete the poor in northern Mali enclaves of Kidal during the Eid-Ul-Adha celebration.

The Turkish IHH donated 100 cows which were slaughtered and the meats distributed to the poor inhabitants of the conflict zone of northern Mali which is under humanitarian crisis.

Eid-Ul-Adha is a holy celebration of sacrifice and hajj pilgrimage on the Islamic calendar celebrated to signify show of gratitude to Almighty Allah.

The charity work facilitated by both organizations is the culmination of its efforts to contribute to alleviating the siege that the region suffers from, due to the bloody confrontations between armed groups, which led many residents to avoid the weekly markets of livestock, for fear of being targeted.

The Malian organization is doing everything in its power to alleviate the crises that have afflicted the region since the outbreak of events in 2012, which are getting worse with the prolonged duration of the crisis.
