Director of Communications Altun: Grave human rights violations, which have left a deep imprint in our collective memory, must stop. Israel should be held accountable for its war crimes
Presidency's Director of Communications Fahrettin Altun condemned on his social media account the killing of some workers of US-based international humanitarian aid organization World Central Kitchen (WCK) in an Israeli attack at a time when they were engaged in humanitarian aid efforts in Gaza.
In his statement, Director of Communications Altun noted that Israel shamelessly continues its genocidal acts and violates international humanitarian law as the world fails to protect innocent Palestinians.
Stating that Israel targeted international aid workers bringing humanitarian aid into Gaza in its latest attack, Director of Communications Altun noted:
"Türkiye extends its deepest condolences to the families of World Central Kitchen aid workers and condemns this brutal attack. Grave human rights violations, which have left a deep imprint in our collective memory, must stop. Israel should be held accountable for its war crimes. Humanitarian aid access to the Gaza Strip, where food is being used as a weapon of war, is urgent to prevent the looming famine in Gaza. The works of humanitarian workers in Gaza reflect the resilience of human conscience in the face of Israel’s atrocities and they will always be remembered."
