Iran urges Arab, Islamic countries to defeat Trump’s Gaza plan

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”.
