ANKARA, June 15 (Xinhua) -- The Turkish presidency on Sunday rejected claims circulating on social media that a portion of Israel's civilian aircraft fleet was stationed in Türkiye, calling the reports "completely untrue."
"The allegations in some social media channels that a part of the Israeli civil aircraft fleet was deployed in Türkiye are completely untrue," the Turkish presidency said in a statement.
The Turkish presidency emphasized that all flights and aviation cooperation with Israel were halted after Israel launched its military operations in Gaza.
"Since there is no civil-military aviation activity between Türkiye and Israel, there are no Israeli aircraft in our airports and hangars," it continued.
"So much so that even the use of Turkish airspace by Israeli officials was not allowed, and this situation was reflected in the press from time to time," the statement added. Enditem
