MEHR: Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan has once again called upon the world to be on the right side of history, as the Israeli regime's relentless attacks on Palestine's Gaza continue after a month.
"The world remains silent. The United States and the West are all silent," Erdogan said, addressing the 16th Summit of the Economic Cooperation Organization on Thursday.
He noted that almost 11,000 people have been killed in Gaza in the last month, 73 percent of which are women and children.
Stressing that Benjamin Netanyahu's cabinet is still continuing its military campaign, Erdogan added that the Israeli regime continues to bomb schools, mosques, churches, hospitals, and universities, infringing on all the values of humanity.
"If we as Muslims do not raise our voices today, when will we?" asked the Turkish President, TRT World reported.
Tel Aviv waged the war on Gaza on October 7 after the Palestinian Resistance movement Hamas carried out a surprise attack, dubbed Operation Al-Aqsa Storm, into the occupied territories in response to the occupying regime’s intensified crimes against the Palestinian people.
Tel Aviv has also blocked water, food, and electricity to Gaza, plunging the coastal strip into a humanitarian crisis.
According to the Gaza-based health ministry, at least 10,569 Palestinians have been killed in the strikes, most of them women and children, while nearly 26,475 others have been injured.
