Turkey condemns Israel's ban on UNRWA as violation of international law
Summary: Turkey's foreign ministry stated that Israel's recent law banning the U.N. relief agency UNRWA from operating in the country violates international law. This law, passed by Israel's parliament, raises concerns among Western allies about worsening humanitarian conditions in Gaza.
The Turkish ministry emphasized that the ban disrupts efforts for a two-state solution and undermines vital support for Palestinians. Turkey plans to continue its political and financial backing for UNRWA, which was established by a U.N. resolution.
Turkey has criticized Israel's actions in Gaza and Lebanon, halted trade with Israel, and applied to join a genocide case against Israel at the World Court.
