The decision of the Turkish authorities responds to statements made on Sunday by Ronen Bar, head of the Shin Bet, Israeli secret services for the interior and the Palestinian territories, who mentioned the persecution of Hamas in other countries such as Lebanon, Türkiye or Qatar.
According to the state news Anatolia agency, other foreign secret services have unsuccessfully tried to conduct illegal operations on Turkish soil.
On Sunday, Bar assured that the Israeli Government aims at wiping off Hamas anywhere: Gaza Strip, West Bank, Lebanon, Türkiye, Qatar or “anywhere.”
