Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan in a speech on Monday called Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu the "butcher of Gaza" adding that "we are preparing to put him on trial".
Speaking about Israel's attacks on Gaza, Erdogan said, "The UN, which was established for global security, cannot even protect its own employees from Israeli barbarism. Israel's massacre has accelerated, I salute the resisting Gaza.
"Netanyahu, who is currently the butcher of Gaza, will be tried as the Butcher of Gaza, just like Milosevic," added Erdogan referring to the former Serbian leader who was charged by an international court for war crimes in connection with the Bosnian, Croatian and Kosovo wars during the 1990s.
