Turkey welcomes UN’s panel decision to probe Israel’s war crimes
Turkish Foreign Minister Ahmet DavutoÄlu has welcomed a U.N. Human Rights Council decision to investigate possible war crimes committed by Israel in Gaza, repeating his call upon Israel to stop its "inhumane attacks" in Gaza.
âWe welcome the decision taken by the U.N. Human Rights Council to investigate Israelâs war crimes in Gaza,â DavutoÄlu said on his Twitter account July 24.
DavutoÄlu said the process at the U.N. panel was launched upon Turkeyâs initiative and that Turkey was determined to pursue the process.
âIsraelâs atrocities in Gaza should be immediately investigated and the results should be shared with the international community,â he said. âWe call upon Israel once again to stop its inhumane attacks in Gaza.â
The U.N. Human Rights Council investigated Israelâs attacks on Gaza in 2009 and accused both Israel and Hamas of committing war crimes.
