TABNAK, Aug, 26: In a phone call, Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araqchi and his Saudi counterpart Faisal bin Farhan stressed sending human aid to Gaza Strip and and boosting efforts to put an end to Israeli crimes and killings in Palestine.
The two sides also stressed continuous consultations between Tehran and Riyadh, saying such negotiations are in line with benefits of the two neighbors and the entire region.
Israel launched its brutal war on Gaza on October 7 last year after the Palestinian resistance movement Hamas carried out a historic operation against the usurping regime in retaliation for its intensified atrocities against the Palestinian people.
Since the start of the aggression, the Israeli regime has killed at least 40,334 Palestinians, mostly women and children. Another 93,356 Palestinians have sustained injuries as well.
Israel’s military has repeatedly targeted Gaza’s civic infrastructure including schools housing displaced people during the war, often claiming without evidence they are linked to Hamas, to evade international criticism.
Recent data compiled by the United Nations Children’s Fund (UNICEF) indicates that half of schools used as shelters in Gaza have been directly hit in the last 10 months since the genocidal war on Gaza began.
Satellite imagery has shown that 85 percent of school buildings (477 out of 564) were directly hit (344) or damaged (133).
