During an Iftar dinner held at the Presidential Complex in Ankara, the president emphasized that, despite the ceasefire in effect since October 10, 2025, the Israeli government is maintaining and intensifying its military actions against Gaza and the West Bank.
Erdogan noted that since October 11, at least 615 Palestinians have been killed and nearly 2,000 wounded as a result of Israeli attacks.
He also denounced the fact that the entry of humanitarian aid into the coastal enclave continues to face serious obstacles, and criticized the restrictions imposed at the Rafah border crossing, which he described as a vital point for the Gazan population.
The president recalled that on October 8, 2023, Israel launched a large-scale offensive against Gaza, with US backing, which, according to Palestinian figures, resulted in more than 72,000 deaths and 171,000 injuries, mostly women and children, in addition to severe damage to infrastructure.
Despite the ceasefire agreement, Palestinian authorities report almost daily violations that cause new casualties and material destruction.
