Türkiye aims ‘to bring the massacre in Gaza to an end’: Foreign Ministry spokesman

 

ISTANBUL

A Turkish official said Saturday that Ankara’s foremost objective is “to bring the massacre in Gaza to an end” and the establishment of a Palestinian state to achieve lasting peace in the region.

Foreign Ministry spokesman Oncu Keceli’s comments were in response to Israeli Foreign Minister Israel Katz’s post on X with a picture of Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan and Hamas Political Bureau Chief Ismail Haniyeh that was accompanied by derogatory and defamatory comments.

Keceli said efforts by members of the Israeli government to shift the agenda will be fruitless.

“It is the Israeli authorities who should be ashamed. They have massacred nearly 35,000 Palestinians, most of them women and children,” he said.

Türkiye will continue to work in this direction and expose crimes committed by Israeli authorities, he added
