Turkey begins construction of 240,000 homes to resettle Syrian refugees in northern Syria as part of a repatriation effort in the upcoming presidential election
The project is expected to be completed in three years and aims to provide a "dignified, voluntary, safe return" to Syrian refugees living in Turkey.
The repatriation issue is a key theme in the election, with both candidates promising to "send all the refugees home." Turkey has offered refuge to over 3 million Syrian refugees since the war began in 2011, but many remain vulnerable to forced return due to their "temporary protection" status.
