Turkish President Recep Erdogan has said Benjamin Netanyahu will eventually be tried as a war criminal over Israel's ongoing offensive in the Gaza Strip, the Jerusalem Post reported.
Speaking at a meeting of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) committee in Istanbul, the Turkish president said Gaza is Palestinian land and will always belong to the Palestinians, and again called the Israeli prime minister "the butcher of Gaza".
"The butcher of Gaza, Netanyahu, has admitted to the cameras that his expansionist goals are not limited to Ramallah and Gaza. That is why the protection of Gaza and Palestine today means at the same time the protection of Jerusalem, Mecca, Medina, Damascus, Istanbul and other Islamic cities," said the Turkish head of state./BGNES
