New research suggests that crude oil shipments from Turkey to Israel have continued despite Ankara’s imposition of a trade embargo in May over its Israeli actions in Gaza.

Shipping data and satellite imagery compiled by researchers from the Stop Fuelling Genocide campaign, supported by Progressive International, indicates that a tanker shipped crude oil directly from Turkey’s Ceyhan port to a pipeline near Ashkelon in Israel.

The port is the last stop on the Baku-Tbilisi-Ceyhan (BTC) pipeline, which transports crude oil from Azerbaijan. The oil is then shipped from the Heydar Aliyev Terminal at Ceyhan to Israel, accounting for almost 30 percent of its crude oil imports.
