Erdogan: Israel will pay the price for the massacre in the Middle East

Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan stated on Friday that Israel will "pay the price for the massacre in the Middle East." The statement was made after the Eid prayer at a mosque in Rize, his hometown.

"The Middle East is currently in turmoil, and this Zionist Israel, as you know, has massacred hundreds of thousands of people. I have no doubt that they will pay the price for this," Erdogan said.

Taking the opportunity of his presence in Rize, Erdogan tasted local bagels, emphasizing that "you won't find them anywhere else."
