Statement from Vice President Cevdet Yılmaz regarding the Iran-Israel tension

Yesterday evening, Iran targeted Israel with a large number of drones. Vice President Cevdet Yılmaz made a statement on his social media account regarding the incident.

Vice President Cevdet Yılmaz stated that they "hope the rising tension in the region will subside as soon as possible and that attention will be focused on the crimes against humanity taking place in Gaza."

Yılmaz noted the following in his statement on his social media account:

"We hope that the rising tension in our region will subside as soon as possible and that attention will be focused on the crimes against humanity taking place in Gaza. As Turkey, we will continue to make every effort to ensure a ceasefire, to deliver humanitarian aid to the oppressed Palestinian people without interruption, and to initiate a political process aimed at achieving a lasting two-state peace. Those who remain silent in the face of the massacres and provide unconditional support to Israel are increasing regional tension and are complicit in the crimes of the Netanyahu administration.

It is a historical and strategic necessity, as well as a humanitarian one, for the international community to return to the rule of law, to stand by those who are in the right, and to take a stance to stop the attacks of the Israeli administration. There is no winner in war, and there is no loser in a just peace."
