TEHRAN (Tasnim) – An Iranian Foreign Ministry official called on the Organization of Islamic Cooperation to take decisive measures to put an end to the Israeli regime’s war crimes and genocidal atrocities against the Palestinian people.
Addressing the 50th session of the Council of Foreign Ministers of the OIC in Cameroon, the Iranian Foreign Ministry’s director general for international peace and security department strongly condemned and expressed Tehran’s grave concern about the Zionist regime’s crimes that have killed over 40,000 Palestinians in Gaza during the past 11 months.
Asadollah Eshraq Jahromi called on the international community, including the OIC, to take decisive measures to put an immediate end to the Israeli atrocities, which he said amount to a clear example of war crimes, crimes against humanity, and genocide.
The Iranian diplomat stressed that the OIC should hold the Zionist regime accountable for its countless crimes.
Denouncing Israel as the main obstacle to sustainable development and stability in the Muslim world and the region, he said the Zionist regime’s destabilizing policies have obstructed cooperation among the Islamic countries and impeded the creation of economic convergence among the OIC member states.
The OIC meeting kicked off in Cameroon’s capital Yaoundé on Thursday under the theme “Development of Transport and Communications Infrastructure within the OIC Framework: A Key Tool in the Fight against Poverty and Insecurity.”
In an address to the opening of the meeting, the prime minister of Cameroon emphasized the centrality of the Palestinian issue, the necessity of implementing the two-state solution, and halting the Israeli regime's aggression against the Palestinian people.
At least 40,602 Palestinians have been killed and 93,855 wounded in Israel’s war on Gaza since October 2023.
