ANKARA, June 2 (AFP): Turkey warned Wednesday of fresh measures against Israel if it failed to free by the evening hundreds of Turkish activists detained in a deadly raid on aid ships bound for the Gaza Strip.
Foreign Minister Ahmet Davutoglu said he delivered the warning in a meeting with Hillary Clinton in Washington Tuesday as he sought her intervention in the crisis over Monday's boarding of the flotilla in international waters .
