(Zaman-Turkey) Turkey should demand $1 billion from Israel as compensation for its raid on a Gaza-bound Turkish flotilla ship in 2010, according to the chairman of the Turkish group IHH, which led the convoy. Bulent Yildirim said Wednesday: "Not only the martyrs, but also all of us, all participants [in the flotilla] including the injured and heavily injured will receive compensation....The amount of compensation that should be given is not $1.5 million, but at least $1 billion." Turkish and Israeli officials are holding negotiations on how much Israel should pay the families of the Mavi Marmara victims. There have been reports that Turkey is demanding that Israel pay $1 million to each family of all of the nine dead, while Israel is willing to pay only $100,000. Furthermore, Israel reportedly suggested paying the same amount paid by the Turkish military to the families of its fallen soldiers - around $70,000. 2013-05-09 00:00:00Full Article
