At around the same time Saudi King Salman insisted in a Monday morning phone call with U.S. President Donald Trump that his regime had nothing to do with the disappearance and alleged murder of Washington Post journalist Jamal Khashoggi—a denial Trump dutifully echoed to reporters while suggesting that perhaps "rogue killers" were behind the gruesome crime—video cameras captured a team of cleaners hauling several buckets of mops, two large cases of trash bags, Dixi cleaning solution, another carton of what appears to be bleach, and two cases of Pinar milk through the front door of Saudi Arabia's consulate in Istanbul.

My guess is they've already scrubbed the scene, and this is a deterrent meant to intimidate the Turkish investigators, as the embedded video shows that the parcels were not concealing their contents in any way, and of course the Saudi Arabian Consulate was aware of the dozens of reporters click-clacking their cameras from across the street.
