Erdogan, Netanyahu trade jabs after Turkey seeks arrest warrant for Israel PM
Jerusalem - Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu branded Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan an "antisemitic dictator" and vowed Israel would "continue to act forcefully" against Turkey's efforts to destabilize the region. This follows a Syrian accusation that Israel bombed a disused military air base near the northwestern city of Aleppo, which Turkey denied.
The statement from Netanyahu's office also accused Turkey of seeking to extend its aggression against Israel into Syria, claiming Turkey aims to establish a military presence.
