The interim Iranian foreign minister has called upon Muslim and freedom-loving nations to stand in solidarity with Palestinians in the Gaza Strip and impose a complete embargo on all commercial dealings with Israel to force the regime to stop its genocidal war on the coastal sliver. 

Ali Bagheri Kani appealed in separate congratulatory messages addressed to the foreign ministers of Muslim countries on the occasion of Eid al-Adha, also known as the Feast of Sacrifice.

He described Eid al-Adha as a great opportunity to foster solidarity among Muslim countries, and also to remind them of their responsibilities for achievement of common goals, promotion of justice and establishment of global peace.

“While Eid al-Adha is an auspicious day for all Muslim countries, Muslims in the occupied Palestinian territories have been suffering for more than eight months in light of the silence of international agencies and the support of Western states for the most horrible creatures in the world. They themselves will fall victim to the oppression, injustice and vicious attacks of the Zionist regime.

“The people of the Gaza Strip offer Eid prayers at the time that the savage Zionist regime has reduced houses and mosques into rubble, and the residents of the territory are awaiting either their martyrdom or the loss of their children at any time,” Bagheri Kani said.

The interim Iranian foreign minister further noted that the exceptional resilience, as well as historic and infinite patience of the oppressed Palestinian people against the crimes of the child-killing and apartheid Zionist regime, have turned the Palestinian issue into the gravest crisis of humankind.

“All Muslim countries and freedom-loving nations of the world are, therefore, expected to strongly stand with Palestinians, and promptly end the ongoing massacre and genocide through imposition of a comprehensive boycott, and condemnation of the crimes of the racist regime,” he noted.

Bagheri Kani finally prayed for the well-being, success, prosperity, and happiness of Muslim nations under the auspices of global peace.

Israel unleashed the Gaza onslaught on October 7 after Hamas-led Palestinian resistance groups carried out Operation al-Aqsa Storm against the occupying entity in retaliation for its intensified atrocities against the Palestinian people.

The Tel Aviv regime has so far killed at least 37,337 Palestinians, mostly women and children, and injured 85,299 others, according to the Gaza-based health ministry. 

The occupying entity has also imposed a “complete siege” on the territory, cutting off fuel, electricity, food, and water to the more than two million Palestinians living there.
