Turkey condemns Israeli attacks on Gaza cancer hospital
The Turkish Foreign Ministry says in a short statement that the fact that Israeli soldiers posed for a photo in front of the destroyed Turkish-Palestinian Friendship Hospital in Gaza “is further evidence of Israel’s violation of international law and international humanitarian law”.
“The Turkish-Palestinian Friendship Hospital is the only centre for cancer patients in Gaza. The damage caused to the hospital by the Israeli forces and its use as a military base is part of Israel’s systematic policy aimed at the annihilation of the Palestinian people,” it said.
“We will continue to work to ensure that those responsible for these attacks are brought to justice in international courts.”

Turkey says use of cancer hospital as Israeli army base part of ‘annihilation’ policy
Turkey’s Foreign Ministry said it will ensure that the Israeli forces responsible for attacking the Turkish-Palestinian Friendship Hospital in Gaza – the only specialised cancer treatment centre in the territory – will face “justice in international courts”.
In a blunt statement, the ministry said Israeli forces posing for a photo in front of the destroyed hospital in Gaza was “further evidence of Israel’s violation of international law and international humanitarian law”.
“The damage caused to the hospital by the Israeli forces and its uses as a military base is part of Israel’s systematic policy aimed at the annihilation of the Palestinian people,” the ministry said.
