Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan said that the killing of the 15 first-responders by Israeli forces in an attack last month was an “execution” and a “war crime.”
Erdogan also warned that “fanning the flames and pursuing new maps with expansionist intentions will benefit no one”, in what appeared to be a reference to Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s stated goal of taking security control over Gaza.
“Everyone must know and understand that we will never turn our backs on our brothers and sisters there while Israel openly tramples the dignity of humanity in Gaza,” said Erdogan, in comments shared by his country’s communications directorate.
