Türkiye calls on Israelis, Palestinians to act with restraint
ANKARA (AA) – Türkiye has called on Israelis and Palestinians to ‘act with restraint’ in the light of the events that took place in Israel, President Recep Tayyip Erdogan has said.
“We call on the parties to act with restraint in the light of the events in Israel this morning and to stay away from impulsive steps that will escalate tensions,” Erdogan said at the Justice and Development (AK) Party’s 4th extraordinary congress in the capital Ankara.
Türkiye will continue to oppose any attempt against the Al-Aqsa Mosque, Erdogan reitrated.
“We will continue to stand against any attempt and any occupation to erode the historical and religious status of our first qibla, the Al-Aqsa Mosque,” he made clear.
His remarks came after Israel responded with full-scale military onslaught against the occupied Gaza Strip after Hamas launched a barrage of rockets into Israeli territory earlier in the day.
