Turkey is working with other countries to carry the investigation into the killing of Saudi journalist Jamal Khashoggi to the United Nations, Foreign Minister Mevlüt Çavuşoğlu said on Monday.

Çavuşoğlu made the comments during a news conference in Tunis alongside his Tunisian counterpart. He also called on Saudi Arabia to share its findings on the case with the international community.

Khashoggi was killed inside the Saudi consulate in Istanbul nearly three months ago.

PKK terror group, Israeli PM are both 'baby killers'

The Kurdistan Workers' Party (PKK) terror group and the Israeli prime minister are both baby killers," Çavuşoğlu said.

On Sunday, Benjamin Netanyahu, on his Twitter account, attacked Turkish president over Turkey's counter-terror operation and Cyprus issues.

Erdoğan on Sunday responded to Netanyahu's remarks by saying, "Erdoğan is the voice of the oppressed, you [Netanyahu] are the voice of the persecutors. You are cruel!"

"You are conducting state terror, your police detain women and children by kicking and dragging them," he added.
