Peace will prevail despite Israeli provocation: Erdoğan

President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan said Wednesday that peace will prevail in the region despite Israeli provocations.

Referring to Israel as "a reckless group," he said, Tel Aviv "never wants the guns to fall silent in our region.”

Speaking at a party meeting in parliament, he called Israel a "massacre network which has made terror and occupation its state policy."

Erdoğan further said Israel had done everything possible to undermine the "hard-won consensus" reached over the past 10 days.
