Iranian President Seyyed Ebrahim Raeisi called on the Muslim states to boost solidarity in the face of Israeli aggression against the Palestinian people.
"Muslim nations demand that statesmen confront the crimes of the Zionist regime (Israel) towards the oppressed Palestinian people," Raeisi said in a meeting with Hicabi Kırlangıç, Turkey's new ambassador to Tehran, on Sunday.
"Therefore, it is necessary for Muslim countries to be more coordinated in standing up against the Israeli brutality."
Over the past months, Israel has ramped up attacks on Palestinian towns and cities throughout the occupied territories. As a result of these attacks, dozens of Palestinians have lost their lives and many others have been arrested.
Most of the raids have focused on Nablus and Jenin, where Israeli forces have been trying to stifle a growing Palestinian resistance against occupation.
The attacks have noticeably increased during the holy month of Ramadan, with Israeli forces repeatedly storming al-Aqsa mosque in occupied al-Quds, beating Palestinian worshipers before arresting them.
