What’s happening? Israel with a shocking statement about Turkey

Israel has warned its citizens not to travel to Turkey, Reuters reports.

The reason is the threats of revenge by Iran for the murder last week of a colonel of the Revolutionary Guard.

Tehran has blamed Israel for killing Hassan Sayyad Hodai, who was shot dead behind the wheel of his car by two people on a motorcycle, and has vowed revenge.

Israel’s National Security Council has warned that Tehran may seek to harm Israelis in Turkey, which it has described as a “high-risk country”.

Turkey is a popular tourist destination for Israeli citizens, and the two countries are in the process of rebuilding ties after more than a decade of strained relations.

Israel has accused Hoday of plotting to attack its citizens around the world.
