The Foreign Ministry said following the attack on Claudia Medina, an influencer with Israeli-Turkish citizenship, at a shopping mall in Istanbul, that "Turkey rolls out the red carpet for Hamas terrorists. Now, a citizen with dual citizenship - Israeli and Turkish - is attacked and harassed." The statement added that "when a government provides terrorists with safe haven, it is not surprising that their hatred is also expressed in its streets. Shameful and unacceptable."
