In a statement, the ministry stressed the need to deliver humanitarian aid to the people of Gaza, who are facing a humanitarian catastrophe, and to begin the reconstruction of the Strip without delay. It noted that Türkiye will continue providing intensive humanitarian aid in the coming period.
The statement emphasized that lasting peace in the Middle East will only be achieved through a just solution to the Palestinian issue, expressing hope that the momentum gained during the truce negotiations will contribute to the activation of the two-state solution in the coming period.
The Turkish Foreign Ministry also commended the mediation efforts of Qatar, Egypt, and the United States during the talks, affirming Ankara's continued support and contribution to the implementation phases of the ceasefire agreement.
The Israeli government is scheduled to ratify the Gaza agreement on Thursday, paving the way for a gradual withdrawal of the Israeli occupation army from the Strip and the release of hundreds of Palestinian prisoners, according to the Israeli Foreign Ministry's statement via the American platform X.
With American support, Israel has been committing genocide in Gaza since October 8, 2023, leaving 67,183 martyrs and 169,841 wounded, most of them children and women, and a famine that has claimed the lives of 460 Palestinians, including 154 children.
Israel has occupied Palestine and territories in Syria and Lebanon for decades, and refuses to withdraw from these areas and establish an independent Palestinian state with East Jerusalem as its capital, along the pre-1967 borders.
