Explosives passed through Istanbul 6 years ago - Minister

The 2,750-tonne ammonium nitrate that caused the explosion in Beirut crossed the Strait of Istanbul into Lebanon six years ago.

Axar.az reports that the statement came from the Turkish Minister of Industry and Technology Mustafa Varank on Twitter.

He said that the "Istanbul Canal", on which Mr. Erdogan is firmly committed, is not a simple issue, but a strategic security issue for Turkey.
