Israel will be held accountable for all oppression it has caused in Palestine since World War II, Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan said on Wednesday, adding that there would be "no escape" from this.
"The more the Israeli administration escalates its oppression, the heavier the price it will pay," Erdoğan said after a Cabinet meeting in the capital Ankara.
"Israeli rulers will sooner or later be tried in the court of humanity, suffer the punishment they deserve, and take their place in dustbin of history," he added.
Erdoğan also criticized the US and Europe for their "unlimited support" to Israel, saying that, had they not given their backing, "rulers of this terrorist state could not act recklessly."
Israel resumed its military offensive on the Palestinian territory on Friday after the end of a weeklong humanitarian pause with the Palestinian group Hamas.
At least 16,248 Palestinians have been killed and more than 43,616 others injured in relentless air and ground attacks on the enclave since Oct. 7 following a cross-border attack by Hamas.
The Israeli death toll in the Hamas attack stood at 1,200, according to official figures.
