By Rufiz Hafizoglu – Trend: 

A group of people who tried to break into the Israeli Consulate General has been detained in Istanbul, Turkey, the Hurriyet newspaper reported Aug. 22.

Five people tried to break into the Israeli Consulate General Aug. 22 at 02:30 (GMT + 2 hours). All the detainees are citizens of Turkey.

It is reported that the purpose of the detainees was a protest against the recent military operations of the Israeli Air Force in the Gaza Strip.

The Israel Defense Forces on Aug. 21 inflicted a strike upon a number of facilities of Hamas (a Palestinian Sunni-Islamic fundamentalist organization) in the Gaza Strip in response to a rocket launched earlier from this area into the Israeli city of Sderot.
