Yesterday, Turkey woke up to the news of two Turkish Airlines pilots being abducted in Lebanon. Later in the day, the abduction was claimed by a group called Zouar Imam Reza and the kidnappers stated their terms for exchange. Nine people have been hostages of the Free Syrian Army for a year now and the pilots are going to be released in exchange for those civilians. I wish hostages on both sides would be released soon in good health. We are talking about real lives, real families and real agony, not subjects.
