  • Turkey has recently completed the building of more than 60,000 houses in Syria’s northwestern province of Idlib, as part of a Turkish plan to encourage Syrian refugees in Turkey to return to their home country.
  • During a ceremony to hand over housing units built in coordination with AFAD to the displaced in Idlib May 3, which was attended by Soylu, Erdogan spoke about the Turkish government’s plan to ensure the smooth and voluntary return of 1 million Syrian refugees to their country.
  • As soon as there was talk about the return of refugees, prices on the real estate market in the Syrian opposition-held areas in northwest Syria began to rise, with more people looking to buy a house, and the number of housing development projects increased in the area.
