Iran’s Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi has called on Arab and Islamic countries to support the Organisation of Islamic Cooperation’s (OIC) efforts to confront what he said was a joint US-Israeli plot to forcibly relocate Palestinians from their homeland.

Al Jazeera, citing the IRNA news agency, said Araghchi made the call during a meeting with the secretary-general of the Persian Gulf Cooperation Council (PGCC), Jassim Muhammad Al-Budaiwi, in Oman’s Muscat yesterday.

Araghchi said a single, decisive voice must be heard from the Islamic world in support of the Palestinian people and praised Arab countries, especially those in the Gulf region, for opposing the “American-Zionist plan to forcibly relocate the people of Gaza”.
