Turkish presidential communications director Boran Kazan said Sunday that remarks by Israeli Defense Minister Yisrael Katz targeting President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan and Turkey demonstrate what he characterized as "political impotence," Shehab Wire reported. Kazan's comments responded to statements from the Israeli official that had singled out the Turkish leader.
The exchange marked an escalation in rhetoric between Ankara and Jerusalem, with the Turkish official linking the Israeli minister's language to internal political difficulties ahead of unspecified developments.
