Israel is not behaving ‘as a state’ at Gaza Stripwhere the Israeli army launched new raids today in retaliation for the bloody attack launched by Hamas, the Turkish president said today Recep Tayyip Erdogan.

“Israel must not forget that, if it behaves like an organization rather than a state, it will end up being treated as such”said the head of the Turkish state, denouncing them “indecent methods” of the Israeli army.

“Bombing civilian communities, killing civilians, blocking humanitarian aid and trying to present these as achievements can only be the reaction of an organization and not a state”, insisted the Turkish president, who usually uses the term “organization” to describe the Kurdistan Workers’ Party (PKK), which is considered a terrorist organization by Ankara and its Western allies.

“We believe that war must have a morality and that both sides must respect it. Unfortunately, this principle is being seriously violated in Israel and Gaza.”he even said, denouncing them “killing civilians on Israeli soil” and “the blind slaughter of innocents in Gaza subject to constant bombardment”.

“Ankara will continue to intensify its operations in Syria and Iraq”

At the same time, the Turkish president pointed out that Turkey will continue to intensify its operations against Kurdish PKK militants in Syria and Iraq.

“We have already stepped up our air operations and we will go ahead and show the terrorists that we can wipe them out in any place and at any time,” noted the president of Turkey, which has launched a series of bombings since October 1 in retaliation for an attack that injured two police officers in Ankara. The Kurdistan Workers’ Party (PKK) claimed responsibility for the attack.
