Over the past few decades, the Christian minority in Turkey had been allowed to renovate their churches, but no new building had been approved by the state. The new church will have space for around 700 people. In addition to the actual church, there are two upper floors with meeting rooms that can be used after masses, baptisms or weddings, as well as an underground car park with parking spaces. The first new building for a Christian church since the founding of the republic in 1923 is about to open there. The Syrian Orthodox Church of St. Ephrem in Istanbul's Bakirkoy district is scheduled to be completed within the next two months. https://freewestmedia.com/2023/01/14/on-erdogans-initiative-first-new-church-built-in-turkey-since-1923/

Another WAR in the WORKS, For a week Turkey has been conducting major airstrikes against Kurdish militia positions in Syria and Iraq, as it blames the outlawed PKK and associate Kurdish groups on the November 13 terror bombing in Istanbul. President Erdogan has warned a ground operation is imminent, which will begin "at the most convenient time for us" - while Turkish warplanes have pounded some 500 targets, leading to reported deaths of over 250 people. A statement from a White House National Security Council spokesperson has said, "The escalation in Syria and along the Turkish-Syrian border in recent days is dangerous and a threat to the safety of civilians and U.S. personnel in Syria." https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/us-backed-kurds-say-white-house-has-moral-duty-shut-down-erdogan-offensive
