ANKARA (Reuters) - President Tayyip Erdogan said on Sunday that Turkey might enter Israel as it had done in the past in Libya and Nagorno-Karabakh, though he did not spell out what sort of intervention he was suggesting.
Erdogan, who has been a fierce critic of Israel's offensive in Gaza, started discussing that war during a speech praising his country's defence industry.
"We must be very strong so that Israel can't do these ridiculous things to Palestine. Just like we entered Karabakh, just like we entered Libya, we might do similar to them," Erdogan told a meeting of his ruling AK Party in his hometown of Rize.
"There is no reason why we cannot do this ... We must be strong so that we can take these steps," Erdogan added in the televised address.
AK Party representatives did not respond to calls asking for more detail on Erdogan's comments. Israel did not immediately make any comment.
The president appeared to be referring to past actions by Turkey.

Israel would have air dominance over the eastern Med in the first hour.
And anything Turkey tried to move would die in an exciting way.
More wars and rumors of wars brought to you by the inept third Obama administration.
Ah, Did Barry Sotero tell you to start World War III?
I think Ezekiel describes this. Don’t think it will turn out well Erdoboy.
Bibi makes too many enemies.
Time for new leadership in Israel, imo.
Wow. Just the thought of him doing that brings end times events into more focus.
Lol. I don’t think so. What are they going to do with D-Day landing?
Fourth.
“Time for new leadership in Israel, imo.”
What different course of action would you suggest Israel take?
Ezekiel 38.
His jaws are hooked and now he’s pulled South.
“Erdogan is following in the footsteps of Saddam Hussein and threatens to attack Israel. He should remember what happened there and how it ended,” wrote Israel’s Foreign Minister Israel Katz in a post on social media site X.
You can do better than Schumer’s talking points meant to placate the anti-Israel left.
Yeah, he needs to stop putting the interests of the country he represents first.
Suburban women hate when elected officials do that.
That would be most unwise.
Turks have a pretty goid AF. Well equipped and have trained to fight the Russkies for 60 years. Of course were Israeli leaders to sense real danger the Turks might then experience what is in the back of everyone’s mind.
(Erdogan says Turkey might enter Israel to help Palestinians)
Of course they will.
Turkey is House of Togarmah.
Ezekiel 38 is coming. It also will not be stopped; for it has been prophesied for the Latter Years and the Latter Days.
Keep an eye on Libya too.
Maybe silly, Mariner, but it changes the whole face of the issues in the mid East.
The Turks are fierce, and they don’t pay alot of attention to international conventions on the battlefield. I’ve been there, done that.
Good luck with that
If Turkey went to war with Israel, would that trigger NATO’s Article 5 and put the USA at war with Israel too?
Is it did, would President Harris (God forbid!) put Christians and Jews into internment camps, the way FDR did to American citizens of Japanese descent in WW2?
No because it's an offensive action by Turkey.
