As part of its social municipal approach, Diyarbakır Metropolitan Municipality enabled thousands of people to break their fast together on the first day of Ramadan at iftar tents set up at four locations across the city.
In order to stand alongside residents during Ramadan, a period when mutual aid and solidarity increase, Diyarbakır Metropolitan Municipality established iftar tents at four central points. In this scope, iftar tents were opened at Dağkapı Square, Koşuyolu Park, Ben û Sen Park, and Tandır Evi Park in Bağlar district.
The tents—intended both for residents who do not have the opportunity to prepare an iftar meal and for those who are on the road at iftar time—will provide a daily iftar menu consisting of four dishes to 6,500 people.

On the first iftar of Ramadan, the tents set up at Dağkapı Square, Koşuyolu Park, Ben û Sen Park and Tandır Evi Park in Bağlar district attracted strong interest from residents. After receiving their meals, people broke their fast together.
