Of those, two have been arrested and six others were released on parole, he said.Since January, Turkish authorities have captured, detained, or arrested dozens suspected of having ties to Israel’s Mossad intelligence agency. Last month they arrested six people charged with spying for Mossad.Turkish and Israeli leaders have traded public barbs since Israel’s war with the Palestinian militant group Hamas began in October. Turkey has warned Israel of “serious consequences” if it tries to hunt down Hamas members living outside the Palestinian territories, including in Turkey.
