Turkey says "full support to Azerbaijan". Foreign Minister Davitoglu in Baku for an OIC meeting says Turkey has always supported Azerbaijan and will continue to do so.

"Turkey has always been close to fraternal Azerbaijan. Turkey is very pleased with Azerbaijan's economic development and with the diplomatic successes of Baku at the international level," stated Turkish Foreign Minister Ahmet Davitoglu this morning, prior to meeting with his Azerbaijani counterpart.

Davitoglu is in Baku to participate in a meeting of the Organisation of the Islamic Conference (OIC) which is focusing on the situation of Jerusalem and on aid to the Palestinian people.

 

"This visit allowed me to reaffirm the existence of strategic ties between Baku and Ankara. I will meet President Ilham Aliyev to discuss the issues of preparation for the meeting of the Azerbaijan-Turkey Strategic Cooperation Council planned for the second half of the year.

We will also discuss the coordination of efforts towards a settlement of the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict, in particular the liberation of the occupied territories of Azerbaijan," he noted.

"Possible steps that can be taken in this direction will be considered," he stressed.

Israeli hostages and Palestinian detainees released as Trump’s Gaza plan is endorsed in Egypt summit

Hamas freed the last living Israeli hostages from Gaza on Monday 13 October under a ceasefire deal and Israel sent home busloads of Palestinian detainees, as U.S. President Donald Trump declared the end of the two-year long war in the Middle East. Hours later, Trump convened Muslim and European leaders in Egypt to discuss the future of the Gaza Strip and the possibility of a wider regional peace, even as Hamas and Israel, both absent from the gathering, are yet to agree on the next steps. The Israeli military said it had received all 20 hostages confirmed to be alive, after their transfer form Gaza by the Red Cross. The announcement prompted cheering, hugging and weeping among thousands waiting at "Hostage Square" in Tel Aviv. In Gaza, thousands of relatives, many weeping with joy, gathered at a hospital where buses brought home some of the nearly 2,000 Palestinian prisoners and detainees to be freed by Israel as part of the accord. "The skies are calm, the guns are silent, the sirens are still and the sun rises on a Holy Land that is finally at peace," Trump told the Knesset, Israel's parliament, saying a "long nightmare" for both Israelis and Palestinians was over.
