US EditionTurkey urges US to act after accusing Israel of breaching Gaza ceasefire
Erdogan urges US to pressure Israel with sanctions or arms sales halt while Turkey commits to mediating and supporting Gaza's reconstruction, citing Israel's ceasefire violations.
- On Oct 24, Turkish President Tayyip Erdogan said the United States and others must push Israel to stop violating the Gaza ceasefire agreement, urging sanctions or halting arms sales to enforce compliance.
- Following a September White House meeting, Turkey, a NATO member, joined ceasefire negotiations as a mediator after largely indirect involvement, increasing its role last month.

- Erdogan contrasted Hamas's compliance with Israel continuing to violate the ceasefire, while US Secretary of State Marco Rubio questioned the authority and feasibility of the international security force for Gaza, saying `We don't think it's going to happen`.
