We, the academic community of Türkiye, strongly condemn Israel’s continuation of inhumane attacks against the Palestinian people which increased during the recent period, and within this framework, its attack on 17 October 2023, targeting the Al-Ahli Arab Hospital in Gaza which resulted in the killing and injury of hundreds of Palestinian civilians, including babies, children and women. We wish Allah’s mercy upon all our Palestinian sisters and brothers who lost their lives in the attacks and a speedy recovery to those injured. We share the grief of the Palestinian people. A human tragedy is taking place in Gaza. There is a clear violation of the principles of international law and international humanitarian law. We call for an immediate end to all attacks and acts of violence. We support the diplomatic initiatives carried out by Türkiye on the basis of the two-state vision with the aim of establishing a lasting peace in the region. In this regard, as the academic community, we declare our readiness to fulfill all our responsibilities.
