Turkey's President Recep Tayyip Erdogan said Thursday that the Middle East war had taken tensions in the region to a "terrifying level" that could spread further.
"With the air strikes against our neighbor Iran, regional tensions have reached a terrifying level," Erdogan said in a televised speech. "The missiles and kamikaze drones directed by Iran against other countries in the region raise fears of the conflict spreading to a much wider area."
