Turkey has called on Muslim nations to stand united for Palestine and to work to stop countries joining the United States in relocating their Israeli embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem.

Turkey's Foreign Minister Mevlut Cavusoglu said today that the "illegal" US decision encouraged Israel to "massacre innocent Palestinians in cold blood."
Addressing the morning session of the OIC in Istanbul, Cavusoglu said "we must prevent other countries from following the US example."
