Turkey is seeking a mediator role in the Gaza conflict, leading to a cooling of ties with Hamas and a restraint in rhetoric from Turkish President Erdogan. Erdogan has called on the international community to stop the Israeli attacks on Gaza, which he describes as genocide. He has also had a phone call with the leader of Hamas, discussing efforts for a ceasefire and humanitarian aid. Erdogan's support for Hamas has drawn criticism from Israeli Minister of Culture and Sports Miki Zohar.
