Erdogan Urges US Action on Gaza Ceasefire Violations

Turkish President Erdogan urges the US and international community to take stronger action against Israel for violating the Gaza ceasefire agreement, potentially through sanctions or halting arms sales. Erdogan highlighted Turkey's active role in ceasefire negotiations and encouraged involvement in Gaza's reconstruction, despite tensions with Israel.

Turkish President Tayyip Erdogan has called on the United States and international allies to apply pressure on Israel to halt violations of the Gaza ceasefire agreement. Erdogan suggested possible sanctions or an arms sales embargo as measures to enforce compliance.

Turkey, a vocal critic of Israel's actions in Gaza, has taken on an increased mediating role in the ceasefire talks following a White House meeting between Erdogan and President Donald Trump. Erdogan emphasized Turkey's commitment to securing the ceasefire, pointing out that Hamas is adhering to the terms while accusing Israel of continued breaches.

Erdogan expressed willingness to support Gaza's reconstruction efforts and urged Gulf states to contribute. Despite recent tensions and Ankara's accusation of genocide against Israel, Erdogan softened his stance on Turkish forces' participation in Gaza amid recent diplomatic discussions.
