Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian thanked his Turkish counterpart, Recep Tayyip Erdogan, for his "firm stance" on X.

"The firm stance of my brother, Recep Tayyip Erdogan, President of Turkey, in condemning the war-mongering Zionist regime is worthy of praise. The proud people of our friendly and brotherly Turkey have for many years consistently stood in support of the aspirations of the Islamic Ummah. By the grace of God, we will walk this proud path together," Pezeshkian wrote.

Earlier, Erdogan made sharp remarks directed at Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

"The network of killers led by Netanyahu must be stopped immediately — every country must show courage on this matter and take initiative," the Turkish president stated.
