Resumption of operations of Jerusalem's economic attachés in Istanbul will affect some 1,540 Israeli companies exporting to Turkish market and help strengthen their business activity in the country. 

Israel’s economic office in Istanbul will resume its operations on August 1 after it drastically downgraded its activities in Turkey in recent years due to the diplomatic fallout between the countries, Economy Minister Orna Barbivai announced Tuesday.

The resumption of operations of Jerusalem's economic attachés in Istanbul will affect some 1,540 Israeli companies currently exporting to the Turkish market and help strengthen their business activity in this lucrative market. Turkey is the fourth most important trading partner for the Israeli economy and was the fifth most important export destination in 2021.
