Turkish President Tayyip Erdogan has said that the United Nations General Assembly should recommend the use of force, in line with a resolution it passed in 1950, if the UN Security Council fails to stop Israel’s attacks in Gaza and Lebanon, Reuters reports.

“The UN General Assembly should rapidly implement the authority to recommend the use of force, as it did with the 1950 Uniting for Peace resolution, if the Security Council can’t show the necessary will,” Erdogan said after a cabinet meeting in Ankara.

“For the peace of everyone in our region, from Muslim to Jew to Christian, we call on the international community and Muslim world to mobilise,” Erdogan said, adding Israel’s attacks would target Muslim countries too if it is not stopped soon.
