Türkiye accused Israel of trying to expand the war to Lebanon

Ankara, Sep 19 (Prensa Latina) The Government of Türkiye today accused Israel of trying to expand the conflict to Lebanon and described Tel Aviv's operations as increasingly provocative.

In this sense, the Turkish executive affirmed that this Middle East country seeks to make the Shiite party-militia Hezbollah and Iran respond to the aggressions, added to this, the Minister of Foreign Affairs of this European nation, Hakan Fidan, indicated that the situation in that area is really worrying.

In his opinion, the coordinated explosions of thousands of communication devices (beepers), with a toll of more than 30 dead and three thousand wounded, are the continuation of the war that began nearly a year ago.

According to his statements broadcast by the Turkish television channel TRT, this is part of an Israeli strategy in the search for a settling of scores first with Gaza and then turning the focus towards Lebanon.

Therefore, he insisted that the current aggressions constitute opportunistic operations, “it is clear that Tel Aviv knew in advance the purchases that Hezbollah would make. They penetrated and infiltrated the companies in some way.”

Likewise, Fidan accused Israel of committing genocide against the Palestinian population and reiterated that the government of that territory, described by him as radical and fanatical, aims at eliminating all threats.
