Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan requested from Foreign Minister Ahmet Davutoglu to closely follow-up the United Nations (UN) flotilla probe, Anadolu Agency reported.

Sources said that Davutoglu phoned Erdogan on Monday before UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon announced Israel's acceptance of a UN panel of inquiry that will investigate the deadly Israeli attack on Gaza-bound aid flotilla in which Israeli commandos killed eight Turks and an American of Turkish origin on May 31.
 
During the phone conversation, Prime Minister Erdogan told Davutoglu to closely follow-up the UN flotilla probe and reminded that Turkey's demand for "an apology and compensation" from Israel continued.
