Dimash Kudaibergen announced that he will donate part of the proceeds from concert ticket sales to help victims of the earthquake in Turkiye and Syria, QazMonitor reports.

In an Instagram post, the singer expressed his condolences to all affected by the disaster.

A 7.8-magnitude earthquake struck southwestern Turkiye and northwestern Syria on February 6 causing large-scale destruction and a large number of casualties. So far, about 5,000 people have been confirmed dead and more than tens of thousands injured.

President of Turkiye Recep Tayyip Erdogan declared a state of emergency in the affected areas and requested international aid.

Earlier, President Kassym-Jomart Tokayev ordered the government to send humanitarian aid to Turkiye and dispatch emergency assistance in the affected areas.
