成員。
"I also have a special request from the Saudi administration. You are the

Holy Places. You especially should work for brotherhood, not animosity. You
have to work for bringing brothers together. This is what we expect from
Saudi, the Custodian of the Holy Mosques.

warplanes and ships will also be sent, the mass-circulation Hurriyet
newspaper said on its website on Friday.

become clear after the preparation of a report based on an initial assessment
at the base," Hurriyet said.

it said.
土耳其代表團將於數日內至基地評估狀況，該處現約有90名土國士兵。
