As Turkey is heading to the polls in general elections on Sunday, Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan stepped up his attacks on foreign media and said that "Jewish capital" was behind the New York Times.
Erdogan has repeatedly criticised foreign media outlets which expressed concern over the corrosion of freedom of expression in Turkey.
