Iran Calls for OIC Reaction to Zionist Regime’s Aggressions


TEHRAN (Tasnim) – Iran’s foreign ministry spokeswoman slammed the Israeli aggressions in the West Bank and the Gaza Strip and called on the international bodies, including the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC), to react to Israeli crimes.

Marziyeh Afkham rapped the continuation of Israeli attacks against Palestinians and called on international bodies, especially the organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC), to take effective measures to stop the occupying regime’s atrocities.

She further underlined that the Zionist aggressions and war crimes will only strengthen the resistance of the heroic Palestinian nation.

Israel stepped up attacks on the Palestinians as part of a military search operation for three Israeli settlers it said had disappeared on June 12.

Reports said on June 30 that the bodies of the Israeli teenagers were found in a field near the village of Hilhul, north of the city of al-Khalil (Hebron), in the occupied West Bank.

The Tel Aviv regime also attacked the besieged Gaza Strip and the West Bank hours after the three bodies were found.

Israel claims Hamas is responsible for the deaths, but the Palestinian resistance movement rejects the allegation.

On Thursday, the Zionist regime's army launched a number of airstrikes in the Gaza Strip, leaving at least ten Palestinians injured.

Tel Aviv also mobilized troops to border areas near the Gaza Strip on Thursday, reports said.
