Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan took a jab at the United Nations today and urged the Islamic world to react after the Israeli occupation's latest massacres in Rafah. 

Speaking with lawmakers from his AKP part, Erdogan said, "The UN cannot even protect its own staff. What are you waiting for to act? The spirit of the United Nations is dead in Gaza." 

Addressing the lawmakers, Erdogan also criticized the Islamic world for failing to take common action over the Israeli massacres, as he said,  "I have some words to say to the Islamic world: what are you waiting for to take a common decision?" 

"Israel is not just a threat to Gaza but to all of humanity," he stressed.

"No state is safe as long as Israel does not follow international law and does not feel bound by international law," Erdogan added, emphasizing that "Israel" is committing genocide in Gaza. 

Israeli massacres in Rafah, Gaza

Israeli occupation forces committed six massacres against Palestinian families in Gaza in 24 hours, killing 75 Palestinians and injuring 284 others, Gaza's Ministry of Health said, announcing today's toll.

Many victims remain under the rubble and on the streets as the IOF deliberately prevents ambulances and civil defense crews from reaching them.

This brings the total number of Palestinians killed by the Israeli occupation since October 7 to 36,171 and those injured to 81,420, the Ministry added.

It is believed that these numbers are nowhere near the true number of victims of "Israel's" genocidal war in Gaza, as Palestinian healthcare authorities face significant challenges in accurately tallying the number of martyrs wounded and individuals dying beneath the rubble.

Moreover, the Government Media Office in Gaza confirmed that the Israeli occupation killed 72 displaced Palestinians within 48 hours between Sunday and Tuesday by bombing their tents in areas it had labeled as "safe zones", west of Rafah.
