"If we, as the Economic Cooperation Organization, do not raise our voices together as Muslims today, when will we raise them?" Erdoğan said, Anadolu writes.
"Israel continues bombing schools, mosques, churches, hospitals, and crushing all humanitarian values," the Turkish leader stressed.
Some 73% of the nearly 11,000 people brutally killed by Israel in Gaza are women and children, Erdoğan said, criticizing the US and West for remaining silent about Israel's attacks on Gaza.
At least 10,569 Palestinians, including 4,324 children and 2,823 women, have been killed since the start of the conflict on October 7, according to Palestinian figures.
