Turkey says it is stopping trade with Israel over the war in Gaza

Turkey says the reason for them halting any trade is because of the worsening humanitarian situation in the Palestinian territory.

Last month, Ankara introduced partial restrictions citing being refused permission to drop aid into Gaza. Their response was to introduce restrictions on trade. Now, it appears that all imports and exports from Israel have been blocked. The country’s Foreign Minister, Israel Katz said this was "how a dictator behaves" "and they will lose."
