Turkey has taken a decision to call off the military aerial maneuvers that were supposed to be held in participation of Israel, the US, Italy and the NATO.
The spokesman for Israeli embassy in Ankara, Amit Zarouk, confirmed Thursday that the joint airborne drills were canceled. He said he did not know if the cancellation would only be for the current year or it would be forever.
The military exercises were scheduled to take place later this month at an air base in Konya city located in central Turkey and the heart of the Anatolian plateau.
The decision is made while Turkish public had earlier called on Premier Recep Tayyip Erdogan not to allow Israeli warplanes, which bombed Palestinian homes, to participate in military drills over Turkey's airspace.
