Turkish PM Recep Tayyip Erdogan addresses his lawmakers at the parliament in Ankara, 01 Jun 2010
Turkey's prime minister criticized Israel Tuesday for a "bloody 1 massacre 2" that killed at least nine people on a Gaza-bound aid ship. A small number of Turkish citizens on the aid ships have returned to Turkey.
Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan's stinging words came after Turkey withdrew its ambassador to Israel and and called the U.N. Security Council to an emergency meeting demanding an impartial 3 investigation 4 into Monday's deadly attack.
Mr. Erdogan was speaking publicly for the first time about the incident after curtailing 5 his visit to Latin America.
No apology can clean the blood from their hands, he said. He added that the bloody massacre by Israel on ships that were taking humanitarian 6 aid to Gaza deserves every kind of curse.
But Mr. Erdogan tempered his rhetoric 7 by calling for cool heads and said all Turkey's actions will be done within the context of international law. He also announced that two Turkish military air ambulances had been sent to Israel to help return the wounded. His speech drew a standing 8 ovation 9 from his party deputies.
But the loudest applause was for his call for the ending of Israel's embargo 10 against Palestinians living in Gaza.
Israel and Turkey were until recently close allies both on a military and political level, but since the Israeli attack on Gaza last year, relations have rapidly deteriorated 11.
Israel has released a few Turks, but hundreds are still being detained.

Arriving at Istanbul's Ataturk airport looking dazed and tired, they were mobbed by dozens of Turkish journalists.
One of the returnees was Nilufer Cetin who was traveling with her one-year-old child on the Mavi Marmara. She described the attack to reporters.
It was extremely bad and very tough clashes took place, she said. The Mavi Marmara was filled with blood. She said the operation started immediately with firing. First it was warning shots, but when the Mavi Marmara wouldn't stop, these warnings turned into an attack.
Israel, which launched a full-scale assault on Gaza 18 months ago, says its blockade aims to weaken Hamas militants 12 who have fired rockets at Israeli towns.
The Gaza war halted indirect Israeli-Syrian talks mediated 13 by Turkey and drew fierce criticism from Mr. Erdogan, who has since emphasized ties with anti-Israel neighbors like Iran and Syria.
