ISTANBUL (AA) – In a Friday phone call, Turkish Vice President Cevdet Yilmaz reiterated Türkiye’s steadfast support for the honorable resistance of the Palestinian people.

Yilmaz told Palestinian Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Mohammad Mustafa: "Under the leadership of our President Mr. (Recep Tayyip) Erdogan, we will resolutely continue to fight Israel's crimes against humanity and war crimes in Palestine on international platforms and to support the honorable resistance of the Palestinian people."

The discussion with Mustafa – who is currently in the Turkish metropolis Istanbul – focused on the escalating situation in Gaza and the West Bank, Yilmaz said on X.

Yilmaz also highlighted Mustafa's gratitude for Türkiye's unwavering support, stating: "Mr. Mustafa expressed great appreciation for Türkiye’s support for Palestine’s just cause on all platforms."

Erdogan and the Turkish government have been outspoken in their opposition to Israel’s brutal offensive on Gaza, now in its second year, which has killed over 44,000 people and wounded over 104,000 others – most of them women and children – also leaving most of the enclave a uninhabitable wasteland.
