"Turkey's truckers association said Monday it would stop delivering goods 
to U.S. forces in Iraq, in what appeared to be a direct response to 
insurgents' brutal, videotaped killing of a Turkish hostage and an attempt 
to win freedom for two other captives."

"Soysal said that 200-300 Turkish trucks bring supplies to U.S. forces in 
Iraq every day."

"He said trucks carrying supplies not destined to the U.S. forces would not 
be affected. Turkish trucks mostly transport fuel and jet fuel to the U.S. 
troops, an official from the group said."
