Foreign Ministry says Israeli actions ‘undermining efforts to bring peace and stability to Syria'
Türkiye on Monday condemned Israel's decision to expand its illegal settlements in the Golan Heights.
In a statement, the Turkish Foreign Ministry said Israel's ongoing actions are seriously undermining the efforts to bring peace and stability to Syria and further increasing tensions in the region.
Calling the decision “a new stage” in Israeli expansion through occupation, the ministry said: “This step by Israel is a source of grave concern, taken together with Israel's entry into the area of separation in violation of the 1974 Disengagement Agreement, its advance into adjacent areas and airstrikes in Syria.”
The ministry urged the international community to take “appropriate measures” to end the “illegal steps of the Netanyahu government.”
