Israel says Turkey 'sacrificing economic interests to support Hamas'

Israel's foreign minister said that Turkey has "unilaterally violated" trade agreements after it decided to restrict exports to Israel.

Foreign Minister Israel Katz said that Turkish President Tayyip Erdogan "is again sacrificing the economic interests of the people of Turkey in order to support Hamas, and we will respond in kind".

Katz added that Israel would respond to the move with its own trade restrictions on products coming from Turkey.
