Erdogan says Netanyahu should be ‘condemned, cursed’ for recent Middle East tensions

Turkish President Tayyip Erdogan criticized the West for condemning Iran’s attack but not Israel’s strike on the embassy in Damascus, which Iran has pointed to as being the cause of their attack. He called for the condemnation of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, saying, “The one that needs to be condemned, cursed here is firstly Netanyahu himself.”
