“New Section Of Genocide Coverage”: Turkey Condemns Israel’s Strikes On Gaza

Istanbul:

Turkey on Tuesday denounced Israel’s lethal strikes in Gaza as “a brand new section” in its “genocide coverage”, saying the federal government of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu defied humanity by means of its breach of worldwide legislation.

“The bloodbath of a whole lot of Palestinians in Israel’s assaults on Gaza… demonstrates that the Netanyahu authorities’s genocide coverage has entered a brand new section,” the overseas ministry mentioned in a press release.

Israel launched its most intense strikes in a single day since a ceasefire took impact on January 19, with the well being ministry within the Hamas-run territory reporting greater than 330 folks killed.

Hamas has not responded to the strikes up to now.

Turkey, which has typically slammed Israel over its Gaza strikes, urged the worldwide group to “take a decisive stance” in opposition to Netanyahu’s authorities.

“At a time when efforts to attain international peace and stability are intensifying, the aggression displayed by the Israeli authorities threatens the way forward for the area,” the ministry mentioned.

“It’s unacceptable that Israel is inflicting a brand new spiral of violence,” it added, saying Israel “defies humanity.. within the gravest means”.
