Erdogan says Turkiye expects ICJ to rule Israel has committed genocide in Gaza

ANKARA: Turkish President Tayyip Erdogan said on Friday that he expected the World Court to rule that Israel has committed genocide crimes in Gaza, as UN judges were set to rule whether to order Israel to halt its assault on the enclave.
Speaking to reporters after Friday prayers in Istanbul, Erdogan said Turkiye, which has harshly criticized Israel for its attacks on Gaza, was closely following the ruling and expected a “positive outcome.”
