NOURNEWS- President Raisi will present important proposals in the extraordinary meeting of the leaders of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation in Riyadh.
"Today, due to the importance of the Gaza issue, an extraordinary summit of heads of Islamic and Arab countries will be held jointly in Riyadh," Iranian Foreign Minister Hossein Amir-Abdollahian wrote on his X account.
"The honorable president will present important proposals in the meeting," he said, adding that despite the full presence of the United States in the war with the Palestinian Resistance in Gaza, Netanyahu suffered his second major defeat.
In continuation of the efforts of the Islamic Republic of Iran to immediately stop the aggression of the Zionist regime, lift the siege, and start providing aid to the oppressed people of Gaza, Iranian President Raisi departed for Saudi Arabia to attend the extraordinary meeting of the leaders of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation.
Before leaving Tehran, Raisi said, "The world should know the real face of the US. We must know the enemy. This meeting is expected by all people, especially the Islamic Ummah."
The United States has prevented the ceasefire in Gaza, president Raisi said, adding that the root of all the corruption is the United States.
-- Saudi Arabia Hosting Iranian President after 11 Years
Ebrahim Raisi, who traveled to Riyadh on Saturday for an extraordinary summit of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) about the Gaza tragedy, became the first Iranian president to visit Saudi Arabia in 11 years.
The Iranian president will join the heads of Muslim states to weigh plans to stop the Zionist regime’s crimes against Palestinians, lift the blockade of Gaza, and send humanitarian supplies to people in the besieged enclave.
On Thursday, high-ranking officials held a meeting in Riyadh in preparation for the upcoming extraordinary summit.
During the preparatory meeting, the delegations representing the OIC members discussed the draft final communiqué that will be submitted to the preparatory Foreign Ministers’ Meeting for consideration and subsequently to the Summit for adoption.
In a meeting with his Turkish counterpart Recep Tayyip Erdogan on the sidelines of an ECO summit in Uzbekistan on Thursday, Raisi stressed the need for the Islamic world’s coordinated action in support of Palestine, warning that if the forthcoming emergency meeting of the OIC in Saudi Arabia fails to save the Palestinians, the scope of regional clashes will expand, because the regional nations will perceive that the Islamic governments are incapable of assisting Gaza and the people of Palestine.
More than 11,000 Palestinians have been killed in Israeli attacks on Gaza since October 7, when Hamas fighters launched a surprise operation against Israel outside Gaza.
The Israeli regime says 100,000 Palestinians have moved southwards in Gaza in the last two days. Many Palestinians say they remain trapped amid continued fighting.
