New Economics Minister Announces Minimum Wage Increase
The Cabinet meeting is set to address a range of critical issues, including the economy, relations with Syria, the humanitarian situation in Gaza, and the ongoing fight against terrorism.
In terms of the economy, the Cabinet will be evaluating the process of determining the minimum wage.

Additionally, measures to combat inflation and price controls will also be on the agenda.
Relations with the new administration in Syria will be a key focus, with discussions on the transition process, infrastructure improvements, and the return of Syrian refugees. The recent meeting between Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan and Syria’s new administration leader Ahmed al-Shara in Damascus will be reviewed.
The humanitarian situation in Gaza, following Israel’s attack, will also be considered, with efforts to secure a ceasefire and long-term peace in the region under discussion.
Lastly, the Cabinet will address the ongoing anti-terrorism operations, both domestically and across the border. The latest developments in these operations will be reviewed to ensure the safety and security of the country.
