Tehran, May 29 (RHC)-- Iran's acting Foreign Minister Ali Bagheri Kani has called upon scholars in the Muslim world to explore all available avenues and exert more pressure on the Israeli regime in order to stop its onslaught against Palestinians in the Gaza Strip.  Bagheri Kani made the appeal during a meeting with former Iraqi prime minister Adel Abdul-Mahdi in Tehran on Monday evening. 

During the meeting, the Iranian diplomat pointed to the strategic changes and developments that have taken shape at regional and international levels following Operation al-Aqsa Storm launched by Gaza-based Palestinian resistance groups on October 7 last year, and Operation True Promise, through which Iran made Israel pay the cost of the criminal attack against its embassy in the Syrian capital.

On April 1st, the Israeli regime carried out terrorist airstrikes on the consular section of Iran's embassy in the Syrian capital Damascus, which killed two IRGC generals, Brigadier General Mohammad Reza Zahedi and General Mohammad Hadi Haji Rahimi, as well as five of their accompanying officers.

In retaliation, the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) targeted the occupied territories on April 13 with a barrage of missiles and drones.  The retaliatory strikes, dubbed Operation True Promise, inflicted damage on Israeli military bases across the occupied Palestinian territories.

Bagheri Kani underlined that prominent thinkers and elites of the Muslim world must play much greater role, and heap pressure on Israel and its sponsors, above all the United States, so that the occupying regime would stop its crimes and genocide in Palestinian territories.

The acting Iranian foreign minister also emphasized the outstanding and undeniable role that late top Iranian anti-terror commander General Qassem Soleimani, late President Ebrahim Raisi and late Foreign Minister Hossein Amir-Abdollahian played in supporting the Axis Of Resistance, and reiterated that the Islamic Republic of Iran will unwaveringly continue the principled approach.

The two sides also discussed a wide range of international and regional issues, including the crimes and genocide of the occupying regime in Palestine and the moral and human responsibilities of Muslim governments in this regard.

Abdul-Mahdi visited Tehran to offer condolences on the passing of Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi, who lost his life alongside seven others in a helicopter crash in northwest Iran on May 19th.
