Turkey Issues Genocide Arrest Warrant for Israel’s Netanyahu
Turkey asked Interpol for red notices for Benjamin Netanyahu and Afek Moskovitch over the interception of a flotilla carrying about 430 activists, officials said.
- On Friday, Justice Minister Akin Gurlek requested Interpol red notices for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Afek Moskovitch, alleging "genocide" linked to the interception of a Gaza-bound aid flotilla.
- The Global Sumud Flotilla, carrying 430 activists, departed Turkey in May to break the blockade, but the Israeli military abducted the activists in international waters.
- Prosecutors allege "crimes against humanity, genocide, aggravated deprivation of liberty, 'intentional assault and battery,' torture, destruction of property, aggravated looting, and hijacking of transport vehicles," while National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir released a video taunting restrained activists.
- Netanyahu's office labeled Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan an "antisemitic dictator," vowing Israel would "continue to act forcefully against Turkey's attempts to destabilise the region."
- France, Italy, and Australia have also launched separate judicial proceedings, reflecting Turkey's position as a sharp critic of Israel's war in Gaza.
