On the 5th anniversary of the Syrian Uprising, Hizb ut Tahrir / Wilayah Turkey and its supporters held a picket in the city of Mersin in support of the sincere people of Ash-Sham Revolution titled, "We reject the crusader coalition! We stood with you and we will remain standing with you!"

As first after the Friday prayer, a prayer in absentia was held ın remembrance of the martyred brave descents of Syria. After the prayer in absentia, Ebubekir Kösem held a press statement in the name of Köklü Değişim Mersin.

Kösem addressed the following points in the statements: "Dear Muslims and dear press members, we have gathered here in remembrance of the 5th anniversary of the Islamic uprising initiated 4 years ago by the sincere Muslims of Syria! The Syrian Muslims had not only to oppose the butcher Assad regime since the beginning of the uprising in March 2011. They have to stand against the USA, Russia and the entire West. They have to stand against the support to Assad of the butcher Iran and the Jewish entity Israel. They have to stand against the opposing of all Muslim lands who turned their backs on their uprising, including Turkey and Jordan." Kösem who addressed the rulers in Turkey said the following: "Oh rulers of Turkey! It is evident that you liaise with your master America in order to besiege the Syrian uprising. Oh Erdoğan! Oh Davutoğlu! Everybody sees and knows that your heated speeches of being together with the Syrian people are only empty words. While you make heroic speeches, you do not run to the rescue of the children losing their lives under the masses of ruins. You did not move for the rescue of the women who shouted out for Mutasım. But you deemed the relocation of a tomb a heroic act."

The press statement which was frequently interrupted by takbirat ended after a dua.
