Ankara: After criticism, the Turkish company refused to supply electricity to the Israeli army.
According to a foreign news agency, Zorlo Group, owned by people believed to be close to Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan, has announced its withdrawal from a contract to supply electricity to Israeli military bases.
The electricity is supplied under a contract between the Israeli Ministry of Defense and Dorad Energy. Durad Group is partly owned by Turkey’s Zorlu Group.
The corporation announced that it plans to liquidate its holdings in the power plant and all holdings in Israel.
The investors concerned were under fire after it was revealed that the Turkish-owned company was involved in a setup that supplies electricity to Israeli military bases.
