Erdogan compared Netanyahu to Adolf Hitler
Recep Tayyip Erdogan, the President of Turkey, has compared Benjamin Netanyahu, the Prime Minister of Israel, to Adolf Hitler. He stated that Israel’s actions in Gaza are similar to the crimes of the Nazis.
The President of Turkey also mentioned that Turkey is ready to welcome academics and scientists who are being persecuted for their views on Israel’s attack on Gaza.
In response, Netanyahu accused the Turkish leader of committing genocide against the Kurds and said that Recep Tayyip Erdogan is not in a position to preach moral values.
The Turkish leader has previously strongly criticized Israel’s attacks on Gaza but has so far opposed cutting ties with Israel.
According to the Hamas Health Department, more than twenty thousand people have been killed as a result of Israel’s attacks on Gaza, with most of the casualties being children, women, and civilians.
