Turkey has imposed tighter restrictions on Israeli cargo flights entering its airspace that have resulted in economic losses for Israeli companies, Israeli daily Haaretz reported.

The Israeli cargo flights were subjected to the measures for carrying dangerous material on board, including batteries and perfume.

Turkey has requested a 10-day prior notice for any flights that might be transporting similar substances, after which a further review will take place, authorities said.

The new restrictions have resulted in losses for Israeli companies that direct their Far East flights through Turkish airspace. Companies suffering losses have made demanded Israeli authorities tighten regulations against Turkish planes as a counter act.

An Israeli executive told Haaretz that they saw the recent changes as "a very serious move by Turkey."

Turkey’s relationship with Israel was severely strained in the aftermath of the Mavi Marmara incident in which nine Turks were killed at the hands of Israeli commandos in 2010.

"Companies suffering losses have made demanded Israeli authorities tighten regulations against Turkish planes as a counter act."

will it make us suffer really?

i mean, there is a lot of Arab countries that would let us pass trough their airspace. so we dont have a problem here...

This is pretty harsh from our government. Take a look at the map and you will see that Israel has pretty much no alternative for the far-east flights and I'm against it because we shouldn't mix politics and economics. This will also hurt our businesses.

i dont know what exactly is in those cargo flights, but to be honest Israel kind of asked for it!

this is politics, and politics ain't clean. you win some you loose some. to bad for the Israeli companies. we wont have that much trouble as we have good relations with countries around middle east. so airspace wont be a huge problem.

If Arab countries do same thing too, mediterranean will be only way to go to Israel.

I think it's pretty fair to demand more information about the gods being flown, I mean if Iran is being subjected to inspection, why shouldn't Israel submit to same security measures ?

Israel is pretty much considering Turkey as an enemy, the only thing lacking is that the foreign minister comes out and says it to the media.

Israel forbade the israeli defense company from trading with Turkey, based on fears that Turkey would give it to Iran, I guess we have grounds to have same fears, Israel dealing with countries that are not friendly towards Turkey :) tit for tat, right ?

Isnt Turkey consider Israel as enemy?

No, Turkey considers Israel an annoyance, a country who kills 8 +1 turkish citizen on an NGO mission and doesn't even apologise. Not once has any Turkish ministers called israel an enemy. (at least not what I know of, and if it had been done, it would be on front page of every bloody newspaper in the world).

Indeed. All the AKP government officials accuse Netanyahu government, not the Israel as a whole.

The so called NGO mission is a pars! Israel offered many times including right before blocking flotilla to transfer the goods through Israel, yet their only desire was to provocate, 2/3 of medicine that they were carrying was outdated, the hostily, the Mavi Marma was the only vessel that had violent resistance among many, Mavi Marmara had 500 foreigner(not Turkish) yet all deceased were Turkish so do all in injured, This is the politics of Erdogan, to gain good relationship with Arab/Muslim countries on on account relationship with Israel, nothing humanistic/supernatural in Turkish policy, he Turkey perfectly well knew who Assad is, Just Assad was dormant till resent year.

Let me try to explain what is Israel's fault once more, you may claim that Mavi Marmara Aid is a propaganda mission, let us assume that you are right, even so;

YOU CAN NOT MASSACRE CIVILIANS who,

-sail in international waters or anywhere in the world even in Israel too ,
-are unarmed (pls dont tell funny Israelean claims about screwdrivers, hammers, hand tools etc or fruit knives)

If you want to stop people who want to help Palestinians that live in the biggest concentration camp which has ever been built in human history, you have to wait till they enter your waters then stop them but again you don't have a right to shoot unarmed activists with 9 bullets in the head each from 10 cm. distance if you want to be a decent state which is a part of human civilization but not a TERROR STATE.

This not the first ''unfortunate'' incident that Israel killed activists.... Remember ''Rachel Corrie'' run over by freaking bulldozer intentionally!! Israel called her terrorist, AIPAC bribed politicans and officals called her terrorsist.

People on that ship knew that there would be bloodshed if they resist and they choose to resist even if this spiritual act of resistent was futile. It was their choice to risk their lifes and it was Netanyahu goverments choice to kill activists...

I hope, we will make things harder for Israeli goverment but seems like this is fake news by haaretz... Which start to act like Press Tv...

I stated this months ago that Turkey will do this, in fact the Turkish government warned Israel of what it got itself into. Additional sanctions and measures will follow without a doubt and the funny thing in the news report it mentions that El Al or whatever these cargo companies are called wrote to the Israeli government asking them to do the same thing. Turkey is a big country dear Israel, but Israel is a small country that will cost nothing for international flights to avoid :rofl:

Reality has a habit of reminding fanatics in Israel just how moronic they are :lol: Honestly those guys should be voted out since they are a danger to Israel itself.
