The Arab League is calling for the United Nations Security Council to take measures to force Turkey to halt its military offensive in Syria and "immediately" withdraw its forces from the Arab country.
A communique after the meeting of Arab foreign ministers on Saturday also urged the Security Council to suspend military and intelligence support that could help Turkey's offensive.
The communique says Arab countries reject Turkey's attempts to impose "demographic changes" in Syria by a so-called "safe zone."
It says Arab countries should consider taking "diplomatic, economic, investment, cultural measures... to confront the Turkish aggression."
Two countries, Qatar and Somalia, expressed reservations about the communique. Qatar has backed Turkey's offensive.
The Arab League's meeting came as Turkey's offensive against Syrian Kurdish fighters entered its fourth day.
