    TEL AVIV WARNS ISRAELIS AGAINST VISITING TURKEY

    The Voice of Russia
    Sept 9 2011

    Israel's Headquarters for Fighting Terrorism has urged Israelis to
    refrain from visiting Turkey, the Yediot Aharanot daily reported on
    Friday, citing a chill in bilateral ties.

    The newspaper said that Israeli Foreign Minister Avigdor Lieberman
    is planning a series of retribution measures against Turkey, which
    will be discussed during a special session in Tel Aviv on Saturday.

    These include a travel advisory warning Israelis, especially those who
    served in the IDF, against visits to Turkey, as well as cooperation
    with Armenia, which wants Turkey to recognize the genocide of Armenians
    in the Ottoman Empire during and after World War One.

    Ankara has downgraded diplomatic relations with Tel Aviv after Israel
    refused to apologize for the death of Turkish citizens in a commando
    raid on a Gaza-bound humanitarian convoy of ships in May 2010.
