Erdogan Slams Netanyahu as 'Butcher of Gaza'

Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan has called Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu "the butcher of Gaza" and accused him of fueling anti-Semitism worldwide. Erdogan's criticism comes in response to Israel's response to Hamas militants' cross-border attack, which resulted in a high number of casualties. Erdogan's sharp rhetoric has strained Turkey's relations with Israel, jeopardizing trade relations and energy projects. Mediators are currently working to extend the Israel-Hamas truce, but Netanyahu's government's plans to eradicate Hamas are complicating the efforts.
