During the talks, Maurer presented a report on the ongoing activities of the ICRC concerning the crises in Syria, Yemen and Libya, calling on the Islamic Republic of Iran to help these efforts prove more successful.

For his part, Jaberi Ansari elaborated on the disastrous humanitarian situation in Yemen and the silent deaths of the people of that country due to the ongoing belligerent policies of Saudi Arabia.
