Israeli Minister of Security Moshe Ya’alon yesterday accused the Turkish authorities of supporting Hamas.

He said: “The movement has two command centres; one in Gaza and the other in Istanbul.”

Israel Radio also quoted Ya’alon as saying: “Turkey is playing a cynical game. Hamas’ representative Hamas moved its terror headquarters from Damascus to Istanbul, despite the fact that Turkey is a NATO member.”

The minister claimed that Hamas is receiving additional support from Qatar.
