Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has strongly criticized Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan, saying he is the last person who can lecture the Israeli government on matters of morality. Netanyahu described Erdoğan as an “anti-Semitic dictator” and accused him of committing genocide against Kurds, supporting Hamas, repressing his own people, and imprisoning political opponents. He added that the government and military of Israel will continue operations against the Islamic Republic of Iran and its affiliated proxy groups. According to Netanyahu, these groups pose a threat to security in the Middle East and around the world, and Israel will continue to take what he described as decisive actions against them. The remarks come amid rising political and verbal tensions between Turkey and Israel in recent months.
