TEHRAN, Nov. 06 (MNA) – The foreign ministers of Saudi Arabia and the Islamic Republic of Iran discussed the latest developments in Palestine in a telephone conversation.

Holding an extraordinary meeting of the leaders of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation with the aim of reviewing the developments in Palestine, stopping war crimes against Gaza and the West Bank, and continuously sending humanitarian aid was emphasized in the telephone consultation.

At the request of the president of Iran and the heads of some other countries, including Saudi Arabia, the meeting of heads of Islamic countries will soon be held in Riyadh.

The Zionist Israeli regime launched an aggression on the Gaza Strip in Palestine on October 7 following the Hamas-led attack on southern the Occupied Lands known as the Al-Aqsa Storm Operation during which it killed more than 1,400 Zionist regime soldiers and armed settlers and taking more than 200 of them to the besieged enclave as prisoners of war.

The death toll continues to mount in the Gaza Strip, which has been reeling from a month of relentless Israeli attacks and a tightened siege.

Nearly 9,800 Palestinians, most of them women and children have been killed in 30 days of Israeli attacks on Gaza.
