TEHRAN, Jul 22 (NNN-IRNA) – Iranian Foreign Minister, Seyed Abbas Araghchi, and his Turkish counterpart, Hakan Fidan, yesterday, highlighted the necessity to take immediate actions to stop Israeli “crimes” in Gaza and the West Asia region.
In a phone call, the two sides discussed the latest regional developments, especially the escalation of Israel’s attacks “against the defenseless people of Gaza” and its “military aggressions” against Syria, according to a statement released by the Iranian Foreign Ministry.
Araghchi strongly condemned the escalating Israeli “crimes” against Palestinians in Gaza, especially through depriving them of food and water.
He called on Muslim countries to take serious and immediate measures, including convening emergency meetings of the Organisation of Islamic Cooperation, and activating regional consultative mechanisms, to halt what he termed Israel’s “genocide in Gaza” and to counter its “warmongering” across the West Asia region.
Fidan, for his part, condemned Israel’s “crimes and aggressions” against Gaza and Syria, stressing the need for immediate and coordinated actions by Islamic countries, to cease the Israeli regime’s “criminal actions.”– NNN-IRNA
