Turkey’s Erdogan Cancels Israel Visit Amid Israeli Aggression on Gaza

Erdogan also slammed remarks which describe Hamas as a terrorist group, saying that the movement is rather a liberation group seeking to protect its land and people.

By Safaa Kasraoui,

Rabat – Turkey President Tayyip Erdogan said he canceled his visit to Israel amid occupation forces’ aggression against Palestinians in Gaza.

On Wednesday, the Turkish President condemned Israeli atrocities targeting Palestinians  during a speech at his party’s parliamentary group meeting.

He said while Turkey has no issue with Israel, Ankara will not approve the Israeli aggression targeting civilians.

“Israel’s missile attacks and missile attacks on Israel should be ceased,” he said.

Emphasizing the importance of an emergency delivery of humanitarian aid, Erdogan also suggested a new round of Palestine-Israel peace meetings.

He said the international community, as well as Palestine and Israel, should learn from previous failed peace talks, Turkish news outlet Daily Sabah reported.

Erdogan also defended the resistance movement “Hamas” from the labels which Western media and countries use to define the Qassam brigade, saying that Hamas is not a “terrorist group.”

He emphasized that Hamas is a group of fighters defending its homeland.

Erdogan’s comments have been viewed as his “strongest” remarks on the Gaza conflict.

Reuters recalled Erdogan’ remarks, focusing on his address labeling Hamas as a liberation group fighting to protect their  lands and people.

In addition to Erdogan, several leaders condemned the Israeli aggression, urging for an immediate ceasefire.

On Tuesday, Emir of Qatar Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani strongly condemned Israel’s ongoing aggression, saying, “it is untenable for Israel to be given an unconditional green light and free license to kill, nor it is tenable to continue ignoring the reality of occupation, siege and settlement.”
