Iran Press/Iran news: In this phone conversation with the Egyptian Foreign Minister Badr Abdelatty, Iran’s Acting Foreign Minister Ali Baghri Kani has said that his country reserves the right to a legitimate response to the Zionist regime’s assassination of Hamas Political Leader Ismail Haniyeh in Tehran.
Bagheri Kani referring to "crimes on the field” and “deception in negotiations” by what he called the Tel Aviv-based criminal gang, said: “The Palestinian people will not surrender to the Zionist regime with their exemplary courage”,
He also censured the United States for supporting the Zionist regime in its war on Gaza, saying that the US cannot be a neutral mediator in the Gaza ceasefire negotiations due to its unwavering support which Bagheri Kani said makes Washington complicit in crimes against Palestinians in Gaza.
The US is constantly trying to create obstacles in the way of halting the occupying regime’s crimes and is encouraging the Zionists to commit genocide, the Iranian diplomat said.
The Egyptian foreign minister on his part referred to the latest round of talks aimed at establishing a ceasefire in Gaza, which were held in Qatar’s capital Doha and were mediated by the US, Egypt and Qatar.
Abdelatty said that Egypt is making efforts to assist the Palestinian people and help bring an immediate stop to the Israeli crimes in Gaza.
He also said an international consensus is required to establish a ceasefire in Gaza as soon as possible, where there are severe shortages of food and medicine amid outbreaks of different diseases.
