He said Egypt is now standing in a decisive moment and we expect officials of this country to send medicines and foodstuff to Gaza and admit the injured from there.

Amir Abdollahian is now on a regional tour to countries such as Kuwait, Jordan, and Oman to discuss Iraq and Palestine.

During the past days, the Zionist regime has launched a criminal aggression against civilians in Gaza in which so far around 100 innocent people have been martyred and many more have been injured.
