Yeni Şafak Newspaper: 48 Uyghurs saved from being deported to China

48 Uyghurs in Thai detention avoided deportation to China following Gaza prisoner exchange developments.

• Thailand reversed decision to deport Uyghurs to China
• Turkey's Humanitarian Relief Foundation (IHH) played crucial diplomatic role
• IHH leveraged Turkey's help in releasing Thai prisoners from Hamas
• 18-day hunger strike by detained Uyghurs ended after decision

DETAILS:

• IHH delegation met Thai officials
• Emphasized risks of deportation to China: human rights violations, death penalty
• Detainees held in poor conditions for over 10 years
• Hope for eventual transfer to Turkey to join relatives
• Awaiting support from appropriate authorities for relocation

The successful intervention prevented potential human rights violations and offers hope for the detainees' eventual resettlement in Turkey.
