No: 190, 16 September 2025, Regarding the Launch of a Ground Offensive by Israel in Gaza City

Türkiye Cumhuriyeti Dışişleri Bakanlığı 16.09.2025

The launch of a ground offensive by Israel in Gaza City marks a new phase in the Netanyahu government’s genocidal plans.

This ground offensive, targeting Gaza City - one of the few remaining places of refuge for the people of Gaza, where over one million Palestinians have sought shelter - will escalate the ongoing massacres, displace hundreds of thousands of Palestinians once again, and further deepen the suffering of the Palestinian people.

Launched at a time when the international community is striving to secure a ceasefire agreement that would include a hostage-prisoner exchange and ensure uninterrupted access for humanitarian aid, this offensive once again demonstrates that Israel does not seek a ceasefire.

It is essential that the international community, particularly the UN Security Council, fulfill its responsibilities to achieve a ceasefire in Gaza.

To this end, Türkiye will continue its cooperation with countries that uphold international law.
