Thousands of people gathered at the airport in Istanbul to greet Recep Tayyip Erdogan, who left the event in Davos after a fiery exchange with Shimon Peres over the Gaza offensive.
"When it comes to killing, you know very well how to kill," Mr Erdogan accused during a panel discussion at the annual gathering of financial and political heavyweights.

the beaches."
