Khashoggi

Defying President Donald Trump, senators sent a strong signal that they want to punish Saudi Arabia for its role in the murder of journalist Jamal Khashoggi. By a bipartisan 63-37 vote, the Senate opted to move forward with legislation calling for an end to U.S. involvement in the Saudi-led war in Yemen.

Ankara does not believe that those who murdered Jamal Khashoggi acted alone, Turkey's foreign minister told a German daily Nov. 26.

The Istanbul Chief Prosecutor's Office has said that the raid on a villa in Turkey's northwestern province of Yalova was based on information pointing that one of the Khashoggi murderers contacted a Saudi businessperson residing there.

A three-story villa in western Turkey was raided by the police on Oct. 23 as part of the investigation into the killing of Saudi journalist Jamal Khashoggi.

The Saudi hit squad’s initial plan was to kill journalist Jamal Khashoggi at a villa in Turkey’s northwestern province of Yalova instead of the kingdom’s consulate in Istanbul, daily Milliyet reported Nov. 28. Click through for the story in photos...

U.S. Republican Senator Mike Lee has said he "disagrees" with President Donald Trump's dismissal of CIA assessment that Saudi crown prince ordered murder of Jamal Khashoggi.

Saudi Arabia's Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman was in the United Arab Emirates on Nov. 23, on his first tour abroad since the killing of Saudi writer Jamal Khashoggi at the kingdom's consulate in Istanbul.

The Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) is in possession of a phone call recording of Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman in which he is heard giving an instruction to "silence Jamal Khashoggi as soon as possible," Hürriyet columnist Abdulkadir Selvi wrote on Nov. 22.

Slain journalist Jamal Khashoggi was barred from media appearances after criticizing U.S. President Donald Trump in late 2016, according to the State Department.

President Donald Trump has declared he will not further punish Saudi Arabia for the murder of U.S.-based columnist Jamal Khashoggi - making clear in an exclamation-filled statement that the benefits of good relations with the kingdom outweigh the possibility its crown prince ordered the killing.
