Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan has accused Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu of provoking regional conflict to maintain power, particularly criticizing the recent attack on Iran's embassy in Damascus as a significant escalation. Erdogan highlighted this incident as the 'last straw,' emphasizing that Israel's actions are aimed at expanding the conflict in the Middle East. He also condemned the West's double standards in responding to the crisis, noting that while there was immediate condemnation of Iran's retaliation, there had been a longstanding silence over Israel's aggressive actions. Turkish Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan echoed Erdogan's sentiments, stating that Netanyahu's actions are a deliberate attempt to drag the region into war to secure his political future.
