Thirty-two vacationer guides killed within the current earthquakes that struck the southern a part of Türkiye had been commemorated on International Tourist Guide Day on Feb. 21.
Members of the Tourist Guide Association (TUREB) and its president, Hakan Eğinlioğlu, visited the Anıtkabir mausoleum of Mustafa Kemal Atatürk, the founding father of the republic, and commemorated those that misplaced their lives within the current earthquakes.
Laying a wreath on Atatürk’s mausoleum, the group paid homage to the 30 vacationer guides who died within the wreckage of the Grand Isias Hotel in Adıyaman, hit by the earthquakes on Feb. 6, and two vacationer guides who had been killed in Hatay.
Eginlioğlu mentioned: “Words are insufficient in this disaster. I am especially sorry for my colleagues who lost their lives in the wreckage of a hotel in Adıyaman. With this heavy heart, we will overcome these days across the country. By wishing for better days with better measures, we will commemorate our friends every year on Feb. 21.”
