Iranian Foreign Minister Ali Akbar Salehi has condemned the Israeli regime for its brutal aggression against the besieged Gaza Strip and has said the Islamic Republic of Iran stands in solidarity with the oppressed Palestinians.
Salehi made the remarks in a telephone conversation with Hamas Political Bureau Chief Khaled Meshaal on Friday, the Fars news agency reported.
The Iranian foreign minister also stated that Iran is ready to send humanitarian assistance to the coastal enclave.
Meshaal thanked the Islamic Republic for its political and spiritual support of the Palestinian people.
Israeli airstrikes, shelling, and artillery fire have left 36 Palestinians, including 8 children and a pregnant woman, dead and over 300 others injured since November 10. Some of the injured are in critical condition.
