Iran urges using last political opportunities over Gaza war

TEHRAN, Oct. 31 (MNA) – Iranian Foreign Minister Hossein Amir-Abdollahian says that the last political opportunities should be used to stop the Gaza war, and if the situation gets out of control, no party will be safe from its consequences.

Amir-Abdollahian made the remarks in a meeting with the Emir of Qatar Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani on Tuesday in Doha.

Hailing Qatar's stance in supporting the oppressed Palestinian nation, Amir-Abdollahian warned about the unpredictable consequences of the Zionist war crimes in Gaza that are carried out with the support of the United States and several European governments.

He also called on Islamic states to take practical and united measures to end the Israeli regime's crimes and lift the Gaza siege.

"As a result of the continuation of the Zionist regime's crimes against the defenseless people and the complete blockade of Gaza, we are gradually witnessing an increase in reactions and the escalation and expansion of the scope of conflicts in the region, and it is natural that the Resistance groups and movements will not remain silent in the face of all these crimes and the full support of the US to the Zionist regime," he stressed.

Saying that the Resistance groups would not wait for anyone's advice, the top Iranian diplomat added, "So we need to use the last political opportunities to stop the war, and if the situation gets out of control, no party will be safe from its consequences."

Al Thani, for his part, asked Amir-Abdollahian to convey his warm greetings to the Leader of the Islamic Revolution and the Iranian president.

Considering the ongoing crimes of the Zionist regime against the Palestinian citizens in Gaza as unacceptable and intolerable, he dubbed the widespread anti-Israeli regime demonstrations in various countries of the world as a sign of global disgust for these crimes.

He added that Qatar will continue its efforts in order to end the current attacks of the Israeli regime against Gaza.

The top Iranian diplomat departed for Doha on Tuesday morning in order to discuss the Palestine issue with the high-ranking officials of Qatar.

This is the second visit made by Amir-Abdollahian to the region, which is due to the worsening humanitarian situation in Palestine.

Negotiation and the exchange of views about the Israeli regime's crimes and the developments in Palestine with Qatari authorities is on the agenda of the Iranian top diplomat in this trip.

The Israeli regime's military also launched a failed ground offensive against Gaza on Friday, after the regime's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said "the second stage of the war" has started.

Israeli regime began its war of aggression against Gaza on October 7, after the Gaza Strip-based Palestinian Resistance movements launched a surprise operation on the regime, dubbed Operation al-Aqsa Storm.

According to the Gaza Health Ministry, the Israeli regime's war of aggression has so far killed more than 8,300 civilians, most of them women and children.
