Iran Press/ Iran news: Iran's Minister of Foreign Affairs, Hossein Amir-Abdollahian is scheduled to leave Tehran for Baghdad on Thursday and he will then depart for Beirut to hold talks with officials of the two Arab countries on mutual relations and leading developments in the region, particularly Palestinians' battle against Israel, known as Operation al-Aqsa Storm.
According to Iran Press, before leaving for Baghdad, regarding the goals of his trip to this country, said: "Today, we will start a periodic trip from Iraq, and then we will consult with the authorities of Syria and Lebanon over the the latest developments in the region particularly Gaza."
Iran's Minister of Foreign Affairs said: "There are few people who do not know that the main root of the crisis in the West Asian region began when the fake Zionist regime started occupying the homeland of the Palestinians."
He added: "The world has witnessed the heartrending scenes that show the Israeli regime's attempt to massacre the defenseless people of Gaza and civilians in recent days.
Amir- Abdollahian stated: "This regime has martyred hundreds of thousands of Palestinians, and according to the available international statistics, 33 thousand children have been martyred by the Zionists."
He continued: "Today, the continuation of war crimes by Netanyahu and the Zionists against the civilians of Gaza, the blockade and cut off of water and electricity, and the lack of permission to bring in medicine and food have made the conditions such that the Zionists are looking for a massacre of all the people of Gaza."
Amir-Abdollahian added: "Of course, the war we are witnessing in Gaza today is not the war of the Zionists against one group, but the war of the Zionists against all Palestinians. 219
