Özil made remarkable statements about the Israeli massacre in the war-torn Gaza Strip:

"Frankly, what is being done there is a great persecution. I am a father, I have 2 daughters. Humanity needs to wake up, not just the sports community, we have been very silent. All of humanity needs to stand up for persecuted Palestinians and say stop to the Israeli massacre in the Gaza Strip. I have never applauded anyone who commits persecution. There is persecution in many parts of the world like Gaza. As Türkiye, we must be strong. After that, they cannot do this persecution."
