Turkish President Erdogan on Lebanon and Gaza:
While on one side peace hopes are flourishing, on the other side attacks on Lebanon, where nearly 5,000 people have lost their lives since March 2, still do not stop.
People are forced to migrate, cities are being destroyed. Lebanese territory is being seized step by step.
Likewise, in Gaza, where 73,000 innocents, mostly children and women, have been massacred, occupation and oppression continue unabated.
Those who see their own security in keeping the region in instability are trying to extinguish even the smallest glimmer of peace.
This warmongering mentality, regardless of who it comes from, must not be rewarded.
