Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan has said that Turkiye has decided to submit its declaration of official intervention in South Africa’s genocide case against Israel at the International Court of Justice (ICJ), Reuters reports.
“We condemned civilians being killed on October 7,” he told a press conference with his Austrian counterpart.
“But Israel systematically killing thousands of innocent Palestinians and rendering a whole residential area uninhabitable is a crime against humanity, attempted genocide, and the manifestation of genocide,” he added.
A foreign ministry official said Turkiye had not yet submitted the formal application to the ICJ.
