Türkiye condemns Israel's attacks on Gaza, calls for global action

Türkiye condemned Tuesday Israel's latest attacks on Gaza, stating that the mass killing of Palestinians marks a new phase in what it described as the Netanyahu government's "genocide policy."

"Israel defies humanity through its violations of international law and universal values in the gravest way," the Turkish Foreign Ministry said in an official statement.

The statement further warned that Israel's aggressive actions threaten regional stability at a time when international efforts for peace are intensifying.

"The aggression displayed by the Israeli government threatens the future of the region. It is unacceptable that Israel is causing a new spiral of violence," the ministry noted.

Ankara called on the international community to take a firm stance against Israel, urging immediate action for a lasting ceasefire and the delivery of humanitarian aid to Gaza.

Reaffirming Ankara's position, the ministry also stressed Türkiye's unwavering support for the Palestinian cause and commitment to regional peace initiatives.
