Erdogan says Netanyahu risks plunging the world into disaster

Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan condemned Israel’s attack against Iran on Friday, calling it a “blatant provocation” that disregards international law and threatens regional and global stability, Anadolu news agency reported. 

Erdogan said the Netanyahu government’s “reckless, lawless and aggressive actions” risk plunging the Middle East and the world into disaster.

He added "we do not want to see more bloodshed, destruction, or conflict" in the region.

“The international community must put an end to Israel’s banditry, which threatens global and regional stability,” Erdogan said on X.

Iran has vowed "severe punishment," and called for an emergency meeting of the UN Security Council to hold Israel accountable for its actions.
