The Turkish Ministry of National Defence has said that anything that can lead to a “larger conflict” must be avoided, Al Jazeera reports.

“Our priority is for the massacre in Gaza to end and for lasting peace to be established in the region,” spokesperson Zeki Akturk said, referring to “despicable attacks” by Israeli forces “on refugee camps and schools where displaced Palestinians seek refuge”.

“It is concerning that these attacks have threatened regional stability. Every step that could lead to a larger conflict must be avoided,” Akturk added.
