After the fall of the Assad regime, Syrian citizens are rushing to return home from Turkey. They continue to use the Hatay border points to cross the border and return to their country. This information was provided by NTV Haber.

"Syrians who found refuge in Turkey during the civil war are using three border points in Hatay to return to their country after the fall of dictator Bashar Assad," the publication states.

There has been an increase in the number of trucks at the border carrying used cars and construction materials such as cement and marble. These trucks are crossing the border between Turkey and Syria through the Silvegesu border checkpoint.

Turkey has opened a border checkpoint with Syria that had been closed since 2013. It is also opening the Yayladağı crossing point so that millions of Syrian migrants can return home safely and voluntarily.

Interestingly, the shares of construction companies in Turkey have soared after the fall of the Assad regime in Syria. Shares of cement producer Oyak Cimento have increased by 9.9%, and shares of Cimsa and Limak Dogu Anadolu Cimento have risen by 10%. The shares of steel manufacturer Isdemir have also increased by 10%. Investors believe that Turkish construction companies will play a key role in the reconstruction of Syria after the fall of the Assad regime.

It was previously reported that the Turkish Disaster and Emergency Management Authority (AFAD) organized a search and rescue operation at the Sednaya prison in Syria, where hostages may be held.
