Netanyahu ‘strongly condemns’ Turkish invasion of northern Syria
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is joining international condemnation of Turkey’s invasion of northeastern Syria, saying the offensive against Kurdish fighters could result in the ethnic cleansing of the minority group.
“Israel strongly condemns Turkey’s military invasion of Kurdish provinces in Syria and warns against ethnic cleansing of Kurds by Turkey and its allies,” Netanyahu says in a statement.
“Israel will make every effort to provide humanitarian assistance to the gallant Kurdish people,” the statement says.
