Erdogan Condemns Israel's 'Disproportionate' Response to Hamas, Urges Fair Stance on Palestinian Issue

Turkish President Erdogan criticized Israel's response to Hamas rocket attacks as a "disproportionate" and "massacre".

Erdogan said Israel's actions in Gaza, like cutting electricity and water and destroying infrastructure, lacked "morality" even in war.

Turkey has been trying to improve relations with Israel but still backs Palestinians and doesn't consider Hamas a terrorist group.

Erdogan called on the world not to "blindly" take sides and to take a fair position between Israel and Palestinians.

Erdogan warned that leaving the Palestinian issue unresolved would lead to more violent conflicts in the future.
