Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan Meets Hamas Political Leader Ismail Haniyeh in Istanbul


On Saturday, Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan held a significant meeting with Ismail Haniyeh, the head of the political bureau of the Palestinian Resistance Movement Hamas. The closed-door meeting took place at the presidential office within Dolmabahçe Palace in Istanbul.

As developments unfold, the world will closely watch for any further outcomes or statements resulting from this high-level engagement.
