Muslim Countries’ Envoys in Russia Voice Solidarity with Gaza

TEHRAN (Tasnim) – The ambassadors of a number of Muslim countries to Russia organized a stand in solidarity with the Palestinian people in the Gaza Strip.

The ambassadors expressed their condemnation of the brutal attacks launched by the Israeli occupation entity on the Strip, and their denunciation of the policy of ethnic cleansing pursued by Zionist circles under American sponsorship and protection.


“Our tragedy as Arabs and Muslims began since the Balfour Declaration in 1917, and since then we have not been fighting “Israel” alone, but rather everyone who sponsors and supports this entity and justifies the crimes it commits,” Syrian Ambassador in Moscow Bashar al-Jaafari said in a speech during the stand.

Al-Jaafari stressed that despite all the lies that the occupation entity and the US are spreading about the Palestinian people, the cause of Palestine will remain a just and right cause.


“To this day, the United Nations confirms in all its documents that the Palestinian territories are occupied territories, and all the resolutions of this international organization in defending the Palestinian cause are approved by a large majority in favor of the Palestinian people,” al-Jaafari noted.

Palestinian Ambassador to Moscow Abdel Hafiz Nofal said at the event: “This criminal attack on the Gaza Strip, imposing a siege on it, starving its people and forcing them to leave their lands, shows the reality of the policy of ethnic cleansing pursued by the Israeli entity.”


Nofal also told SANA’s correspondent in Moscow, “The Palestinian people are steadfast and adhere to their land despite all Israeli attempts to displace and target them.”

Iranian Ambassador to Moscow Kazem Jalali also stressed that the massacres to which the Palestinian people are exposed are a tragedy for all of humanity, and the crime committed against them is a shame on humanity.

He stressed that the Palestinian issue is not only an issue of Arabs or Muslims, but rather an issue that concerns the entire world.

Poll: US Public Support for Israel Wanes as 68 Percent Call for Ceasefire

  TEHRAN (FNA)- Israel’s war on Gaza is upsetting many Americans who think it must follow growing demands for an immediate ceasefire, according to a new poll. The Reuters/Ipsos survey found only 32 percent of respondents said “the US should support Israel”. That is down from 41 percent from a poll conducted on October 12-13 – just days after the war broke out. About 68 percent of respondents said they agreed with the statement, “Israel should call a ceasefire and try to negotiate”. Some 39 percent supported the idea “the US should be a neutral mediator”, compared with 27 percent a month earlier. Only 4 percent of respondents said the United States should support Palestinians, while 15 percent said the US shouldn’t be involved at all in the war. While the US has been a significant Israeli ally, just 31 percent of respondents said they supported sending Israel weapons. The plunge in support...

US ‘Biggest Nuclear Threat’: China

  TEHRAN (Tasnim) – The United States poses the greatest danger to the world when it comes to the risks of a potential nuclear conflict, Chinese Defense Ministry spokesman Zhang Xiaogang told journalists on Friday. Beijing has accused Washington of making “irresponsible decisions” in attempts to maintain its hegemony, including through intimidating the international community with its nuclear arsenal, RT reported. The damning statement came in response to the Pentagon’s decision to upgrade US Forces Japan into a joint force headquarters under the command of a three-star officer reporting to the commander of the Indo-Pacific Command. The announcement was made by the US Defense Department in late July following the meeting of the American and Japanese defense and foreign policy chiefs. US Defense Secretary Llyod Austin hailed the development as “one of the strongest improvements in our military ties with Japan in 70 years” at that time. He also said that the two sides “held a separ...
