Regarding the Middle East, Erdogan said the humanitarian crisis in Gaza “has reached a severe level,” and that humanitarian aid “must be delivered without interruption.” He added that “this tragic humanitarian disaster must end.” Turkey, he concluded, “is ready to cooperate and provide every kind of support to establish a ceasefire and ensure lasting peace.”
