ISTANBUL/ANKARA (AA) – Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan said Tuesday the PKK/PYD/YPG terror group poses a threat to Iraq's stability, development and peace.

Talking to reporters on the plane after his key one-day visit to Iraq, he offered Türkiye's help for solving Iraq's worsening water crisis.

On Israel's onslaught in Gaza, he said Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and his allies will not evade justice.

“We'll keep exposing the truth, voicing Israel's crimes. Know this: Netanyahu, like Hitler, and his accomplices won't escape accountability."

He said Türkiye has sent some 45,000 tons of aid to Gaza and will continue helping its "'Palestinian brothers and sisters."

Regarding Israel’s attacks on journalists in Gaza, Erdogan said that Tel Aviv is revealing its “discomfort with truth” by its attempts to erase evidence of its massacres and genocide.
