 Iran’s Foreign Minister Hossein Amir-Abdollhaian returned home on Wednesday night from Qatar where he held talks focusing on the Gaza war and aiming to find ways to prevent the deterioration of a humanitarian crisis there.

During his one-day trip, Amir-Abdollahian held talks with Qatari Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Sheikh Mohammed bin Abdulrahman Al-Thani, and Head of Hamas’ Political Bureau Ismail Haniyeh.

Iran’s top diplomat and the Hamas chief held talks before Haniyeh departed for Egypt for negotiations aimed at bringing a new ceasefire in Gaza.

The Wednesday trip was the fourth by the Iranian foreign minister to Qatar since the Gaza war broke out on October 7.

Amir-Abdollahian has also visited other regional countries over the past two months as part of the Islamic Republic’s diplomatic efforts to support the Palestinian people.
