Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, in a phone call joined by President Obama, apologized to Turkey Friday for the deaths of its citizens during a 2010 Gaza flotilla raid. 

Netanyahu acknowledged "operational mistakes" in the raid, according to one official. Turkish Prime Minister Recep Erdogan accepted the apology. The phone call was described as a "first step" toward normalizing relations between the two countries. 

Obama, who arrived in Jordan Friday after his first visit to Israel as president, is thought to have arranged the call.
