Türkiye on Wednesday called for “punitive and coercive measures” against Israel’s actions that completely disregard international law, according to Anadolu Agency.
“It is imperative that the necessary punitive and coercive measures be taken against these actions by Israel in complete defiance of international law,” the country’s Foreign Ministry said in a statement, in response to Israel’s latest operation in the West Bank.
The statement also condemned Israel’s “illegal operation” and Israeli Foreign Minister Israel Katz’s remarks on extending practices from Gaza to the West Bank.
“We strongly condemn the illegal operation launched by Israel in the West Bank and the statement by the Israeli Foreign Minister that they will extend the practices in Gaza to the West Bank,” it said.
The statement further said that the “genocidal policy” being pursued by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s government is a major threat to international security.
It also urged a “handful of countries that unconditionally support Israel” to abandon their position against the law and human conscience.
