Iran, Oman FMs urge swift end to Israel genocide, acts of aggression in Gaza, Lebanon

The foreign ministers of Iran and Oman have called for an immediate international intervention to end the Israeli genocide and acts of aggression in Gaza and Lebanon.

Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi and his Omani counterpart Badr bin Hamad Al Busaidi made the joint call during a meeting in Muscat on Monday.

The meeting focused on the dangerous situation resulting from the Israeli regime’s crimes against the Palestinian and Lebanese people and the possibility of an expansion of war in the region.

Araghchi and Busaidi called for intensified diplomacy with regional and international players to protect regional peace and security and prevent the spread of insecurity and war.

The Iranian foreign minister separately met with Mohammed Abdulsalam, senior representative of Yemen’s National Salvation Government.

Araghchi is visiting Oman as part of a diplomatic marathon to de-escalate the situation in the region as Israel pushes its deadly aggression against Lebanon and Gaza. He has so far traveled to Lebanon, Syria, Saudi Arabia, Qatar and Iraq.

In talks with regional authorities, the top Iranian diplomat conveyed his country’s message that it is fully ready for a "war situation" while working for establishing peace in the Gaza Strip and Lebanon.
