The Turkish foreign ministry has c0ndemned the Israeli parliament's efforts to classify Unrwa, the UN agency for Palestinian refugees, as a terrorist organisation.
In a statement, the ministry said the move was "unacceptable" after "targeting civilians sheltering in Unrwa schools in Gaza and killing nearly 200 UN employees in the last nine months."
It called on the international community to condemn the attacks on the agency.
On Monday, Israel's parliament passed three bills, in their first readings, to close Unrwa and designate it a "terrorist organisation."
