A great "Palestine" protest was held in Istanbul

At a time when the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, which began on October 7, continues to be the most violent and the death toll has exceeded 8,000,000 under heavy Israeli bombardment, a great "Palestine" protest was held today in Istanbul with the participation of President Erdoğan and millions of people.

A large number of Uyghurs living in Istanbul also participated in the protest.

At the beginning of his speech, President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan began with the words, "We have shed tears for the suffering of many peoples from Crimea to Karabakh, from Bosnia to Kirkuk, from Palestine to East Turkistan, from Afghanistan to Chechnya, and our lives have not been wasted."

In his speech, President Erdoğan said: "Israel is an occupying regime, and what they are doing is not self-defense, but an open massacre and a war crime." And while the West has shed crocodile tears over Ukraine, it has chosen to remain silent when it comes to Gaza.

Erdoğan also said that he is doing all the work to declare Israel a war criminal: "O Israel! The West owes you a lot, so they support you passionately. But Turkey has no debt to you.
