Israel hopes the Turkish government of re-elected Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan will block a flotilla of activists hoping to sail to Gaza, an Israeli minister said on Monday.
“It’s clear that we don’t want to see encouragement on the part of the Turkish government towards a provocative flotilla,” Israel’s deputy foreign minister, Danny Ayalon, told public radio following Sunday’s election in Turkey."
