In a post on his social media account, Minister Memişoğlu provided information about injuries that occurred during the slaughter on the first day of Eid al-Adha, stating, "On the first day of Eid al-Adha; a total of 14 thousand 372 people across our 81 provinces, including 1 thousand 49 in the capital Ankara, 753 in Istanbul, 655 in Konya, 634 in Gaziantep, and 572 in Manisa, have applied to our health facilities as a result of injuries sustained during the sacrifice slaughter.
We emphasize that the slaughter of sacrificial animals should be performed by professionals; we once again remind our citizens who have not yet slaughtered their animals to pay attention to this matter.
I wish a speedy recovery from God to our injured citizens," he said.
