In a landmark development, Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi and Saudi Arabia's Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman engaged in their first-ever phone conversation since the recent restoration of diplomatic ties between the two regional powers.
This significant dialogue, which lasted approximately 45 minutes, centered on the critical issue of Palestine and garnered considerable attention on the international stage.
The much-anticipated conversation followed a groundbreaking China-brokered agreement that paved the way for Iran and Saudi Arabia to re-establish diplomatic relations.
During their historic phone call, President Raisi and Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman addressed the pressing matter of the Palestinian-Israeli conflict.
The Iranian state media reported that the leaders stressed the urgent need to put an end to the ongoing war crimes committed against the people of Palestine.
As the leaders engaged in this groundbreaking dialogue, the backdrop of their conversation was the dire situation unfolding in the Palestinian territories, particularly in the Gaza Strip.
Tragically, the death toll among Palestinians in the Gaza Strip has surged to a staggering 1,100 individuals, with an additional 5,339 reported as injured. These devastating figures bear witness to the human toll exacted by relentless Israeli airstrikes over the past five days.
