Ankara transferred at least 40 cancer patients and their relatives on Wednesday after they crossed the Rafah crossing from Gaza into Egypt.
Turkey's Anadolu Agency said Turkish authorities had airlifted the cancer patients back to Turkey, where they will continue receiving treatment.
Turkish Health Minister Fahrettin Koca personally visited Egypt’s Al Arish to coordinate the Turkish aid efforts and meet with the cancer patients.
