April 13, Fineko/abc.az. A new scandal has broken out between Israel and Turkey.

ABC.AZ reports with reference to the foreign media that the reason for the scandal was Turkey's desire to send medicines to Palestine.

So, three planes arrived in Istanbul for transportation of medical supplies to Israel as part of the fight against a new type of coronavirus. Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan, addressing the Israeli leadership, said: “We want to send the same products directly to the Palestinians, let us do it”, but official Tel-Aviv rejected the Turkish leader's offer. The Israeli side generally refused to buy supplies, and the planes remained in Istanbul.

This has led to new tensions between the two states.
