Turkish goverment has closed its airspace for Israeli miltary aircraft, Turkish prime minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan told reporters at the G20 meeting in Toronto, Canada on June 28 2010, national media reported.
Turkey has banned the Israeli flights in what is becoming a deteriorating row between the two countries in the aftermath of the attack by Israeli commandos on a convoy of ships bound from Turkey to Gaza on May 31 which wasnt acceptable in International waters.
Nine people, including eight Turks, Kurds, American were killed in the raid. After the convoy raid, which Turkey described as an act of piracy, the country withdrew its ambassador from Israel and cancelled joint Israeli-Turkish military exercises.
Turkey demands an apology from Israel, the return of the seized ships, and compensation for those involved as well as an international investigation. Israel, however, has refused and only agreed to an internal inquiry into the raid.
Erdogan has clearly answered question on media meeting which was held in airport, Turkey had not allowed a plane carrying Israeli military officers, on its way to a tour of memorial sites in Auschwitz, Poland, to fly over Turkish airspace.
