Turkey calls on Israel to accept probe into raid

None

Turkey's foreign minister has called on Israel to accept an international probe into the deadly raid on a Gaza-bound aid flotilla that killed nine Turks. Ahmet Davutoglu said Israel should declare it accepts the probe proposed by UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon. He said: "Otherwise it means that they have something to hide."

 

Israel's ambassador to the US has said Israel rejects the idea. Davutoglu was speaking on the sidelines of a summit of a 20-member security group, where Turkey is seeking to condemn Israel. (AP)
