An important development has occurred regarding the health status of renowned historian Prof. Dr. İlber Ortaylı. It has been learned that Ortaylı, who has had a large fan base in the academic world and on television programs for many years, has been dealing with serious health problems for some time.
Journalist Fatih Altaylı drew attention to Ortaylı's health condition, emphasizing that he expects both prayers and good wishes from his close circle and all his loved ones. Altaylı stated, "Dear readers, my dear friend, a piece of my heart, our teacher İlber Ortaylı, whom you all and all of us love very much, has been struggling with very serious health problems for a few days. If you believe, do not spare your prayers for him; if you do not, do not spare your good wishes."
Last month, on February 15, Ortaylı's health status had come to the agenda again following a surgery he underwent. While it was reported that the operation was completed successfully, Ortaylı had thanked the healthcare workers who were with him during the treatment process.
