Araghchi urges Saudi FM that Muslim nations must come together to halt ‘israel’s’ atroticies in Gaza and Lebanon
Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi has called on Muslim countries to unite in their efforts to stop what he described as Israel's criminal actions and the violent assaults on civilians in the blockaded regions of Gaza and Lebanon. He also expressed appreciation for Saudi Arabia's prompt condemnation of the recent Israeli attack on Iran.
On Monday evening, during a phone conversation with Saudi Arabia’s Foreign Minister Prince Faisal bin Farhan, the senior diplomat underscored the importance of ongoing communication and consultations between the two nations.
The two ministers engaged in discussions regarding the most recent developments within the region.
Farhan reaffirmed his nation’s position, denouncing Israel’s aggressive actions as a violation of Iran’s sovereignty and territorial integrity. He emphasized the importance of regional collaboration to prevent the proliferation of instability.
Early on Saturday, Israeli forces conducted strikes on multiple military installations in Iran, resulting in the deaths of four Iranian servicemen and one civilian, according to official reports.
Iran’s Defense Minister, Brigadier General Aziz Nasirzadeh, announced on Monday that recent acts of aggression by Israel resulted in only “minor” damage. He further stated that the damage was swiftly repaired and replacements were made promptly.
According to a statement by Ali Akbar Ahmadian, Secretary of Iran’s Supreme National Security Council, on Monday, Israel’s military actions have not affected the Islamic Republic’s defense capabilities.
Iran has asserted that while it does not seek conflict, it reserves the right to deliver a “suitable and resolute” response to what it describes as a recent act of aggression by Israel.
