Public Announcement

In parallel with the recent developments in Iran and surrounding countries, we have maintained rapid and regular communication from the very beginning with our athletes—Ergi Kırkın, Mert Alkaya, Yankı Erel, and their teams—as well as our referee Toygar Alagöz, who are in the region for their tournaments.

We also continue to monitor the situation closely with the officials from our athletes' respective clubs, the Adana Tennis, Mountain and Water Sports Club and the ENKA Sports Club.

The health, safety, and well-being of our players, referee, and teams remain our utmost priority. We are in constant contact with the support teams on the ground to ensure that all immediate needs are regularly met.

At this stage, we are continuously holding talks with the competent authorities in accordance with travel arrangements, airline operations, and official directives. We are evaluating these conditions with the authorities to ensure that our esteemed players and teams can safely depart the region as soon as circumstances permit.

We are carrying on our efforts with the highest level of support and coordination from our Ministry of Foreign Affairs, our Esteemed Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs, and our Ambassadors to Qatar and Abu Dhabi.

We will continue to assess the situation and provide regular updates.

We are grateful to the officials of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Republic of Türkiye for their support.
