Erdogan warns of invasion of Israel

Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan recently stated that Turkey might intervene in Israel to support the Palestinians, similar to its actions in Libya and Nagorno-Karabakh. During a meeting in Rize, Erdogan emphasized the need for strength to prevent Israel from mistreating Palestine, warning that Turkey could take decisive action if necessary.

Israeli Foreign Minister Israel Katz quickly responded to Erdogan’s comments, accusing him of following in Saddam Hussein’s footsteps and threatening to attack Israel. Katz advised Erdogan to remember the consequences of past conflicts and urged caution in his rhetoric.

Erdogan’s reference to Turkey’s involvement in Libya and Nagorno-Karabakh underscores his willingness to use military force to support allied governments and causes, despite international scrutiny. While Turkey asserts its commitment to standing with oppressed populations, its interventions have sparked controversy and raised tensions in the region.
