READ HERE: The Turkish president has condemned the IDF for the staggering Palestinian death toll
Israel’s war in Gaza is comparable to the massacres committed by Nazi Germany during World War II, Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan said on Friday. This comes as the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) ramp up their ground assault against Hamas militants in the southern part of the densely populated Palestinian enclave.
“In front of the eyes of the whole world, Israel’s occupying forces brutally martyred 28,000 of our Palestinian brothers and sisters, most of them children and women,” Erdogan said at the Islamic Cooperation Youth Forum. The IDF’s strikes on schools, hospitals, mosques, and other civilian sites are “attacks reminiscent of the Nazis,” he added.
