The "Anadolu" agency reported that the Israeli authorities did not allow 90 citizens of Turkey to enter the country, who intended to visit Jerusalem, newsru.ru reports.. co. il.

Representative of the tour operator "SilaTour" Mustafa Bichkyoglu informed the agency that tourists were denied entry "under the pretext of lack of visas".

At the same time, the representative of the travel agency calls the claims of the Israeli side "unreasonable", since travelers could not leave Turkey without visas.

"Operators organizing tours to Jerusalem do not issue visas separately to each tourist. An equivalent visa issued by the consulate in exchange for a visa fulfills the role of a visa for all members of the group. However, upon arrival in Israel, local authorities did not allow 90 of our clients to enter the country, justifying this step by the lack of visas, "- the representative of the tour operator.
