ISTANBUL, SANA – After months of relentless Israeli attacks, scenes in famine-wracked Gaza are now \u201cworse than Nazi camps,\u201d with people being starved and deprived of water before the eyes of the world, said the Turkish president on Tuesday.<\/p>\n
“The terrorist state of Israel has been committing genocide against our brothers in Gaza, brutally massacring them for 22 months in an area of 360 square kilometers (139 square miles),” Erdogan told a news conference alongside his Kazakh counterpart Kassym-Jomart Tokayev, in Ankara.<\/p>\n
“Israel’s use of hunger as a weapon against Palestinians is the clearest indication that they have no humanity,” he added.<\/p>\n
Calling the humanitarian situation in Gaza catastrophic, Erdogan urged all countries \u201cwith a conscience, especially Islamic nations, and all peoples\u201d to raise their voices loudly to counter Israel\u2019s attacks, which cause innocent children to be killed either from hunger or from bullets fired by occupation forces.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe will continue to do whatever is necessary in this regard. God willing, we will also see the days when those committing genocide against the people of Gaza are held accountable before the law and history,\u201d Erdogan added.<\/p>\n
