WARNING OF "MOVING TOWARDS A BIGGER WAR"

Minister Fidan stated, "This is not Israel's war; the whole world is paying the price for it. From the first day, we have seen this dangerous picture. This is a war conducted for Netanyahu's political survival. Therefore, we are calling for restraint at the highest level. We are moving towards a bigger war. We are against a war that will spread to regional countries. Today, an information war is also being fought. What is being told tries to transform the truth. For a very long time, we have experienced a designed chaos, and the prolonged conflicts being designed in this way weaken, divide, and leave the region defenseless," he said.
