Get it right, Reuters.

Same thing for the BBC that wrote a headline about Israel bombing Lebanon because a "soccer field was hit". It wasn't some empty soccer field, but a kids match being played by Druze children, where a dozen were killed and dozens more were badly injured.

The hate a bias against Israel by these news organizations is overt.

Erdogan is desperate to distract people from his terrible mismanagement of the economy. This is why he's rattling his saber like this. He doesn't mean it though. It's just a political stunt.
