Netanyahu’s Office: 'Erdogan is an antisemitic dictator who oppresses his own people'
<p>The Prime Minister’s Office responded to Turkey’s request to issue a “Red Notice" against Netanyahu “for genocide," stating: “Israel has long since ceased to be impressed by Turkey’s hypocrisy. Erdogan is an antisemitic dictator who massacred Kurds, supports the massacre carried out by the Hamas terrorist organization, and oppresses his own people."</p>
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.
