ANKARA (Sputnik) – The relations between Turkiye and Israel are completely severed, Ankara is not taking any steps to mend them, the Turkish Center for Combating Disinformation of the Communications Department said on Monday. A number of Israeli media claimed that Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan contacted the Israeli administration in a bid to restore relations.
"As a result of Israel's genocidal policies in Gaza, relations between Turkiye and Israel have been completely severed. No steps have been taken to improve relations in the following period," the center said.
The center said that calling Israeli officials is out of the question for the Turkish leader and called such news “unfounded claims.” The center urged the public not to believe such allegations.
