Turkish President Erdogan welcomes Gaza ceasefire deal

TEHRAN, Oct. 09 (MNA) – Türkiye's President Recep Tayyip Erdogan on Thursday welcomed the Gaza ceasefire deal between Israel and the Palestinian group Hamas.

“I am deeply pleased that the Hamas-Israel talks held in (the Egyptian city of) Sharm el-Sheikh, to which Türkiye also contributed, have concluded with a ceasefire in Gaza,” Erdogan said on the Turkish social media platform NSosyal.

Erdogan said Ankara will closely monitor strict implementation of the ceasefire deal, and continue to contribute to the process.

Türkiye will also continue to voice support until “an independent, sovereign Palestinian state, with full territorial integrity, is established on the basis of the 1967 borders, with Al-Quds as its capital.”

“On this occasion, I extend my most heartfelt greetings to my Palestinian brothers and sisters, who have endured indescribable suffering for two years, struggling for life and dignity under inhumane conditions, losing their children, mothers, fathers, relatives, and friends, and who, despite all the tragedies they have endured, have not compromised their honorable stance,” Erdogan said.
