In the statement, the banner "Stand up for an honorable peace" was unfurled. Speaking on behalf of mothers, Meyaser Korkmaz said: "As Urfa Peace Mothers, we want peace against the war. We do not want any weapons to explode any more. The hearts of soldiers and guerrilla mothers are burned every time a gun explodes. We don't want to hurt so bad in anyone's hearts to burn anymore. We don't want war all over the world and in Turkey. We say no to war."
