Israeli lawyer Nir Jaslovitch, representing the family of a couple of Israelis detained in Turkey, arrived in Istanbul this morning (Saturday), where he will meet with local lawyers to try to secure their release.
This is after it became known yesterday that the court decided to extend their detention by 20 days.
At the same time, the Israeli consul will also try to meet with the two, who were arrested on Thursday after they allegedly photographed the palace of Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan.
Today, the family of Natalie and the Oknin rebels will launch a mass recruitment campaign to fund their legal battle.
The funds raised in the campaign will also be used to fund the travel and stay imposed on the couple, Egged drivers living in Modiin, due to the legal entanglement they got into.
Meanwhile, family members were advised to reduce their level of media exposure.

The Oknin couple have been arrested, according to Turkish media reports on suspicion of "political or military espionage".
The two took the photos from the top of the Chamalika Tower, which has a 360-degree view from above, including the Presidential residence.
According to one report, an employee of the tower reported the suspicion the two aroused in him, which led to their arrest.
The two have a five-year-old child with special needs, who is also in Turkey.
With the update on the arrest, the family in the country contacted the Foreign Ministry.
Carmit, the detainee's sister, claimed yesterday that the office had been dormant before.
"It was only when we started making noise and the evening of communication that it started to move," Carmit said, "until then they just said they were waiting for information and that they knew nothing."
According to her, she only heard about the extension of detention in the foreign media in the foreign media.
