Turkey has completed the restoration of 11 out of 23 historic structures, including mosques and churches, in its southeastern provinces.
Many of the historic sites in Diyarbakir and Mardin provinces were severely damaged during attacks by the PKK terror group, which also dug trenches for fortification.
The terrorists were defeated following successful security operations, and the process to restore the historic sites is in its concluding phase.
The restored structures include Zeynel Abidin Mosque and Complex, and Hasirli Mosque.
The remaining sites, including the Fatih Pasha (also known as Kursunlu) Mosque, the Armenian Catholic Church, the Selman Pak Mosque and a shrine in Diyarbakir will be completed by the end of 2018.
