Turkish Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan on Iran:

The war in our region must end as soon as possible.

For months, we have made great efforts to establish a negotiating table.

Today as well, we say that diplomacy is the solution to problems, and we continue to work in that direction.

Turkish Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan:

Israel has adopted a strategy of creating instability across the entire region, fueling conflicts and civil wars.

We, on the other hand, together with friendly and brotherly countries, have adopted a policy that stands for peace in the face of Israel’s approach.

Turkish Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan:

We told our Iranian friends: “If this was a missile that went off course, that is another matter. But if more is to follow, our advice to you is: by all means, no one in Iran should embark on such an adventure.”

Turkish Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan on Iran:

I would like to once again emphasize that we condemn attacks targeting third countries.

The attacks against Qatar, Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, the UAE, and Bahrain put innocent civilians’ lives at risk and increase the possibility of the war spreading.

IDF spokesperson:

The campaign may continue for a long time, but it is necessary.

Turkish Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan on Iran:

It is not a correct strategy to attack the civilian infrastructure of countries that do not allow their airspace to be used by other nations or permit the use of foreign military bases on their territory.

Doing so would also, to some extent, play into the hands of the Israeli expansionism currently unfolding in this region.

BREAKING: Reuters, citing security sources, reports that Katyusha rockets have targeted the U.S. Embassy in Baghdad.

Turkish Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan on Iran:

For many years, Israel has adopted a strategy of using Kurdish groups in the region as proxies.

In the current ongoing developments in Iran as well, they are openly declaring in certain circles their strategy of using Kurdish groups in this way.

Turkish Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan on Iran:

We are against all scenarios that aim to trigger a civil war in Iran.

This is the most dangerous scenario, and we warn both the West and the East—everyone—against it.

Such a scenario would not only cause the innocent civilian population in Iran to suffer more, but could also lead to the displacement of millions of people and force them to flee as refugees to neighboring countries and beyond.

The Dubai Government Media Office announced that interception debris that fell on a vehicle in Dubai caused the death of a foreign resident with Asian citizenship.

Spanish PM Pedro Sánchez:

Greetings to the Turkish Twitter community.

Israeli President Isaac Herzog on pardoning Netanyahu:

I will consider everything seriously, but I'm obliged under the process and under Israeli law to await opinions that must be given to me by the relevant authorities.

That is why, of course, everything is on the table. But it has to be done according to Israeli law.

Turkish Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan says Rubio told him that the U.S. has no intention of arming Iranian Kurds.

Trump in 2019:

Lindsey Graham would like to stay in the Middle East for the next thousand years, with thousands of soldiers, fighting other people's wars.

I want to get out of the Middle East.

Netanyahu on Iran:

We are creating the conditions that allow the Iranian people to take their destiny into their own hands.

Netanyahu on Iran:

We destroyed government facilities, nuclear infrastructure, command centers and military bases, weapons factories, missile depots, and hundreds of ballistic missile launchers.

Netanyahu threatens Lebanon:

I say again to the Lebanese government: your responsibility is to enforce the ceasefire. Your responsibility is to disarm Hezbollah.

If you do not do this, Hezbollah’s aggression will bring disastrous consequences to Lebanon.

It is time that you, too, take your fate into your own hands. In any case, we will do everything necessary to defend our communities and our citizens.

Netanyahu claims:

We do not seek to divide Iran. We seek to free Iran.

Netanyahu:

In recent days, Iran has attacked 12 countries around it.

We stand with them.

Netanyahu claims:

Many countries are turning to us now — I tell you — many countries are turning to us now for cooperation.
