Iran Press/West Asia: Attendees will “discuss the continued Israeli aggression on the Palestinian territories and the Lebanese Republic, and the current developments in the region”, the official Saudi Press Agency said.
The Saudi Foreign Ministry announced the summit in late October, during the first meeting of an “international alliance” pushing for a two-state solution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
This comes one year after a similar gathering in Riyadh of the Cairo-based Arab League and the Jeddah-based Organisation of Islamic Cooperation, during which leaders condemned Israeli forces’ actions in Gaza as “barbaric”.
Mohammadreza Aref, the first vice president of Iran, will give a speech at the meeting.
