Did you know that with every bomb dropped on Gaza, Turkey makes a profit? Turkey’s steel industry plays a significant role in the global market, particularly in its trade relations with Israel. Whenever there is a war involving Israel, such as Israel’s current war on Gaza, most of the steel used in Israeli munitions comes from Turkey.

The trade dynamics between the two countries have evolved significantly since 2002, when the Justice and Development Party (AKP) came to power. Over the last two decades, Turkish steel has been key for Israel. For Turkey, the steel sector has seen rapid growth in exports to Israel, emphasizing its strategic value.

So, while Turkey’s steel industry continues to profit from Israel’s genocide in Gaza, with nearly 11,000 killed since October 7th, what does Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan's claim to stand with the Palestinian people really mean?
