Turkey's foreign ministry said Sunday it had submitted a letter to the United Nations, signed by 52 countries and two organisations, calling for a halt in arms deliveries to Israel.
"We have written a joint letter calling on all countries to stop the sale of arms and ammunition to Israel. We delivered this letter, which has 54 signatories, to the UN on November 1," said Hakan Fidan at a press conference in Djibouti, where he was attending a Turkey-Africa partnership summit.
