Qatar helps Turkey and Syria – level 2

16-02-2023 07:00

Qatar promised to send 10,000 mobile homes to Turkey and Syria.

Soccer fans used these homes during the 2022 World Cup. Each cabin has 16 square meters, and there are two beds and furniture. Qatar will send the cabins to people who lost their homes after last week’s earthquakes.

Qatar always planned to donate the homes, but after the disaster in Turkey, the plans changed. The first batch of mobile homes already left Qatar, and they will arrive in Turkey soon. In November 2022, Qatar promised to give 6,000 mobile homes to homeless people in Kenya.

Difficult words: mobile home (a building in which people live and which can be moved to another place), donate (to give money or things to people who need them), batch (a group of similar things).

You can watch the original video in the Level 3 section.

Why did Qatar change its plans after the earthquakes in Turkey?
