ANKARA - Turkish President Tayyip Erdogan on Wednesday slammed the United Nations Security Council which was unable to pass a resolution for a humanitarian pause in the conflict between Palestinian and Israeli forces to allow aid to reach civilians in Gaza.
In a post on social media platform X, Erdogan said Turkish efforts to establish calm in the region had been hindered by the"collective punishment" of Palestinians through air strikes and the deployment of U.S. aircraft carriers to the region. "Western countries, which leave no stone unturned when it comes to human rights and freedoms, have taken no steps other than adding fuel to the fire," he said, while criticising the"biased and two-faced" media coverage of the conflict.
Erdogan said on Wednesday this amounted to"genocide", the first time he used that term since the conflict began, but this time he did not name Israel as the perpetrator of the hospital attack.
