Leaders of Arab and Muslim nations presented a united front against Israel and its "belligerent" actions in the Middle East at a summit in Doha on Monday.
The summit was held in the aftermath of Israel's attack on the Hamas negotiating team in Qatar, which Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan said has taken "Israel's banditry" to a different level.
"Türkiye always stands by its friendly and brotherly ally Qatar," he said, adding that the Arab-Islamic summit in Doha demonstrates the Islamic world's unwavering support for Qatar.
"We are facing (Israel's) terrorist mentality that feeds on chaos and blood, and a state that embodies it ... we must intensify our diplomatic efforts to increase sanctions against Israel," he said.
Erdoğan also urged the Islamic world to thwart Israel's expansionist ambitions.
