Turkey

A Turkish court is trying four former Israeli military officers in absentia for the deaths of nine Turks on a Gaza-bound ship in 2010. Israel dismissed the trial as propaganda. The Turkish Justice Ministry denied allegations that some 76 journalists have been jailed this year as part of a governmental effort “to silence critical journalists through imprisonment, legal prosecution and official intimidation.”
