Turkiye Sever Diplomatic Ties with Israel

Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan has officially declared that Turkiye has severed all diplomatic relations with Israel.

The announcement marks a significant shift in relations between the two nations, as Erdogan affirmed, "As the state and government of the Republic of Turkiye, we have severed relations with Israel. At the moment, we have no relations with Israel."

The diplomatic break comes amidst rising tensions between Turkiye and Israel, particularly about ongoing conflicts in the Middle East.

Turkiye has long been critical of Israeli policies, especially regarding Palestinian territories, and this latest decision underscores Ankara's commitment to supporting Palestinian causes.

This move represents a sharp departure from the historical ties that once existed between the two countries.

In recent years, however, relations had been strained over various political and humanitarian issues, with Turkiye often calling for stronger international action to address the situation in Gaza and the broader Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
