Turkey condemnsUS-Israel attack on Iran as international law violation
Turkish President Tayyip Erdogan condemned Monday's US-Israel attack on Iran as a clear violation of international law during a Ramadan fast-breaking dinner in Ankara. Erdogan stated Turkey shares the pain of the Iranian people amid the widening conflict that killed Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, according to DAILY POST. Turkey, a NATO neighbor of Iran, had previously urged Washington and Tehran to negotiate, warning the region couldn't handle more destabilization. The dispute escalated after Israeli provocations, with Turkey historically balancing complex ties to Iran despite opposing sides in Syria's civil war. Erdogan's condemnation highlights Turkey's position as a regional mediator amid escalating tensions.
