Turkey and Israel traded sharp barbs on Sunday, with President Tayyip Erdogan seeming to threaten military action against Israel as tensions heated up between the Jewish state and Hezbollah.

Israel in turn warned that Erdogan’s fate could become akin to that of former Iraqi President Saddam Hussein, who was executed by hanging.

“Erdogan is following in the footsteps of Saddam Hussein by threatening to attack Israel. He should remember what happened there and how it ended,” Israel’s Foreign Minister Israel Katz wrote in a post on X, in which he linked a photograph of Erdogan and Hussein.

The Turkish Foreign Ministry on Monday compared Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to Nazi dictator Adolf Hitler in a post on X. “Just as genocidal Hitler ended, so will genocidal Netanyahu,” the post stated.

“Just as the genocidal Nazis were held accountable, those who tried to destroy the Palestinians will also be held accountable,” it added. “Humanity will stand with the Palestinians.”
