Israel blocks sale of F-16 recce equipment for Turkey

The diplomatic crisis with Ankara intensified on Thursday when the Defense Ministry decided not to renew an export license for Elbit Systems and Israel Aerospace Industries to sell advanced intelligence systems to the Turkish Air Force.

Defense officials said Israel was working to improve ties with Ankara but that the ministry was “responsible for every product that receives an export license” and that it could not currently permit the delivery of the intelligence- gathering systems to Turkey.
