The Turkish government has requested Interpol to issue red notices for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and another Israeli official. This request stems from the country's stance against Israel's recent attacks on Syria and the subsequent detention of activists aboard the Global Sumud Flotilla. The move was made following genocide charges against Netanyahu and Afek Moskovitch on July 14, 2026.
These charges include crimes against humanity, genocide, and other severe offenses related to the armed intervention against civilians. The request was made amid rising tensions and threats from Israeli officials, including Defence Minister Israel Katz, who accused Turkey of meddling in Syria and warned Turkey to curb its rhetoric. Both Turkish and Syrian officials have denied these allegations.
