BAT YAM, ISRAEL // Israeli heavy metal is rocking Turkey despite deep discord between the Jewish state and its Muslim former ally as hundreds of fans turned out to hear a group called Orphaned Land play a concert in Istanbul.
The group played to Turkish fans and others who came from countries across the Arab world on Saturday. Because the Israeli musicians cannot enter many Arab states, they perform several times a year in Turkey.
