Istanbul: Turkiye said it would impose trade restrictions on Israel starting Tuesday over the war in Gaza, covering a range of products including cement and steel and iron construction materials.
The new measures come a day after Turkiye said Israel had blocked its attempt to airdrop aid to Gaza.
"This decision will remain in place until Israel declares a ceasefire immediately and allows adequate and uninterrupted flow of humanitarian aid into Gaza," the trade ministry announced on social media.
It attached a list of 54 products subject to export restrictions.
Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan on Monday vowed reprisals against Israel for blocking Turkiye's air force from airdropping aid to Gaza, saying they would be implemented "step by step" and "without delay".
