Turkey condemns Israeli attack on Hamas in Doha, says it adopted terrorism as state policy
Turkey condemned Israel's attack against Hamas members in Qatar's capital Doha, President Tayyip Erdogan said on Tuesday, adding that the government of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu aimed to deepen conflict and instability in the region.
"This attack, which constitutes a clear violation of international law and Qatar's sovereignty, has also targeted the security and peace of our brotherly nation, Qatar," Erdogan said in a statement.
"Turkey stands with its Palestinian brothers and its ally, strategic partner and friend, Qatar, with all its capabilities," Erdogan also said.
Earlier, Turkey's Foreign Ministry said the attack showed Israel had adopted "expansionist politics in the region and terrorism" as state policies.
