JAKARTA - President Recep Tayyip Erdogan told President Joe Biden the assassination of the Head of the Hamas Political Bureau has dealt a crushing blow to efforts to realize the ceasefire of the conflict in Gaza.
It was done when the Turkish leader held a telephone conversation with the President of the United States on Thursday to discuss a number of matters, as well as discuss the situation in the region.
"The killings carried out against the Head of the Political Bureau of Hamas Ismail Haniyeh have dealt a heavy blow to the ceasefire efforts, and Israel is trying to spread fires in Gaza throughout the region," President Erdogan said in a tweet on the Turkish President's X account, as quoted August 2.
"President Edogan underlined that Netanyahu's government has shown at every step, it is not aimed at a ceasefire or peace, that events in the US House of Representatives have caused deep disappointment in Turkey and the world," he tweeted.
The head of the Political Bureau of Hamas Ismail Haniyeh was killed in an attack in Tehran, after attending the inauguration of the elected president Masoud Pezeshkian on Tuesday. Previously, he met Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei and Pezeshkian on separate occasions before the inauguration.
