ANKARA, May 14 — Turkey’s President Recep Tayyip Erdogan said Monday that “more than 1,000 members” of the Palestinian militant group Hamas were being treated in Turkish hospitals amid the ongoing war in Gaza.
Erdogan, a vocal critic of Israel’s war in the Palestinian territory following Hamas’s attacks on October 7, made the announcement to reporters, adding that he considered Hamas “a resistance organisation”.
“So many Hamas members have been killed. The whole of the West is attacking them with all sorts of arms and munitions,” he said.
“Calling Hamas... a terrorist organisation would be cruel,” he said, adding that Greece and Turkey disagreed on this “very important” question.

Hamas is classed as a terrorist organisation by Israel, the United States and the European Union among others.
The October 7 attack on Israel resulted in the deaths of more than 1,170 people, mostly civilians, according to an AFP tally based on Israeli official figures.
Gunmen also seized some 250 hostages, scores of whom were freed during a week-long truce in November.
