Claim

Social media Turkish accounts and websites denied the news that 3 children named after Turkish presidents Rajab Tayyip and Erdogan were killed in Idlib countryside.

The accounts and websites shared photo of the three children with their father in a refugees camp on Harran in Sanliurfa and their refugees protection cards with their names (Rajab, Tayyip and Erdogan) and their father Mahmoud Yassin.

But Verify-Sy visited today the house of the father of the children who were killed in explosion of bomb from previous shelling on Kafersajna in Idlib countryside and confirmed the names of the children who were killed are Rajab, Tayyip and Erdogan and their father is Khaled Hasan Taha Sabih.

A relative of the family confirmed to Verify-Sy that the children were born in a refugees camp in Turkey and the father chose the names as gratitude to the Turkish president who was the Prime Minister.

The relative said that the family came back to Syria before a short time during Eid holiday and stayed at Kafersajna village while the father kept moving between Syria and Turkey for work.

A source said that the Turkish president didn’t visit the family of the kids before and the photos of him with other children were for another family and said that the three kids with another kid were killed when they were playing with a bomb they found in a farm while their parents were harvesting olive.

Update

Verify-Sy has a copy of protection cards Turkey gave to three children Rajab,Tayyip and Erdogan when they were in Turkey which include their TC number given to Syrian refugees in Turkey and start with numbers 98
