FM underlines importance of ‘joint efforts’ by Muslim countries towards stopping Israeli crimes

Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi underlines the importance of joint endeavor on the part of the world’s Muslim countries towards stopping the Israeli regime’s ongoing deadly crimes against the Gaza Strip and Lebanon.

The top diplomat made the remarks during separate phone calls on Wednesday with Sugiono, Badr Abdelatty, and Mohammed bin Abdulrahman Al Thani, his counterparts from Indonesia, Egypt, and Qatar.

Speaking with Sugiono, Araghchi laid emphasis on the need for the international community, including Muslim nations, to chip in common efforts at bringing about cessation of the Zionist regime’s atrocities as well as enabling trial and punishment of the regime’s ringleaders.

‘Unfit for human life’: UN rapporteur Francesca Albanese paints grim picture of Gaza

A new report by UN rapporteur Francesca Albanese has joined the mountain of evidence exposing the Israeli regime’s war crimes against Palestinians in Gaza and West Bank.

The Iranian and Egyptian foreign ministers, meanwhile, described the situation in the West Asia region as dangerous.

They said it was imperative for the international community to take immediate and effective efforts at enabling realization of ceasefires in Gaza and Lebanon, and noted that Muslim states played a special role in such efforts.

Addressing Al Thani, Araghchi said the essential condition for restoration of stability and calm in the region consisted of joint endeavor by Muslim countries towards assisting the people of Gaza and Lebanon, and immediate cessation of the Zionist regime’s genocide in the coastal sliver and deadly attacks against the country.
