Ankara reportedly denied an Israeli request for the president's aircraft to fly through Turkish airspace to go to the COP29 conference in Baku.

Turkey effectively stopped the Israeli president from attending the COP29 summit in Baku earlier this week by denying permission for his aircraft to enter Turkish airspace, according to several reports citing Azerbaijani and Turkish officials. On Saturday Israeli President Isaac Herzog's office announced he was cancelling his planned visit to the climate conference in Baku, Azerbaijan.
The president's office cited "security considerations" as the reason, without elaborating further. But Ynet cited officials in Azerbaijan on Sunday saying the trip was cancelled because Turkey refused to allow the president's plane to enter its airspace. An unnamed Azerbaijani official reportedly said that Israel and Turkey engaged in "intensive negotiations through diplomatic channels that lasted for several days but did not yield results".
