Presidency's Director of Communications Fahrettin Altun shared a post in English on his social media account on the Israeli attack on a hospital in Gaza.
Altun stated the following:
"Bombing hospitals is a grave crime. Massacring people who are receiving medical attention is simply beyond the pale. Targeting civilians is employing terror tactics, pure and simple.
Unconscionable attacks such as the one reported against the Baptist Hospital in Gaza City is unacceptable. Innocent civilians in the thousands have suffered more than enough. This must stop. Period.
As President Erdoğan stated, the whole world must come together to stop Israel from committing more crimes against civilians. Civilians and women are being targeted and this is barbarism that is against any humanitarian value we hold dear.
Israel must immediately stop massacres against civilian targets. Intimidation of the Palestinian people through fear, starvation and bombs must stop. Violence against sick and elderly must stop. Bombing of Gaza must stop. The world must wake up and stop this bloodshed."
