Turkish Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan accused Israel of aiming to expel all Palestinians from Gaza, Middle East Eye reported. Fidan said the alleged policy amounted to forced displacement and demanded immediate international intervention to pressure Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to reverse course.
The accusation reflects deepening tensions between Ankara and Jerusalem over the scale and conduct of Israel's military campaign in Gaza. Turkey has emerged as one of the region's most vocal critics of Israeli operations in the territory, repeatedly warning of humanitarian consequences and calling for ceasefire negotiations. Fidan's statement underscores the diplomatic friction between the two NATO-linked countries over the conflict's trajectory and civilian impact.
