Foreign Minister Mevlut Cavusoglu’s visit to Israel next week could be marred by differences with Tel Aviv regarding the Turkish top diplomat's program, political sources in Tel Aviv revealed on Friday.

“The visit is supposed to be another advanced step on the path to improving relations between the two countries and to resume full diplomatic relations and return the two ambassadors to Ankara and Tel Aviv. However, Cavusoglu’s planned trip is witnessing disagreements over security arrangements and a Turkish request that the minister visit Al-Haram Al-Sharif and Al-Aqsa Mosque without Israeli escorts,” the sources said.
