Turkey continues to champion justice, peace, and truth on all platforms, undeterred by "pressure from Zionist network," Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan affirmed on Saturday.

In his message on the occasion of the Eid al-Adha Islamic holiday, Erdogan said that "despite all the pressure from the Zionist network, we advocate for justice, rights, and peace on every platform, and we do not hesitate to boldly speak the truth."

The Turkish leader dedicated the holiday to the people of Gaza, "who are observing it under the oppression of genocidal Israel."

He stressed that "victory will hopefully be for Palestinian people, despite all barbarism of child-killer Israel and its supporters."

In mid-May, Erdogan said the Israeli occupation is conducting the same practices in Gaza employed by Nazi Germany in its wars and that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has surpassed Adolf Hitler in his "genocidal methods".

"Netanyahu has reached a level that would make Hitler jealous with his genocidal methods. We are talking about Israel; which targets ambulances, hits food distribution points, and opens fire on aid convoys," he indicated in an interview for the Greek newspaper Kathimerini.

Turkey declared it would suspend all trade with "Israel" amid the ongoing Israeli war on Gaza, citing a "worsening humanitarian tragedy" in the Strip.

The Turkish Trade Ministry said the country "will apply these new measures... until the Israeli government authorizes an uninterrupted flow of humanitarian aid to Gaza."
