Iran envoy praises Qatar for sending aid to Gaza Strip

The Ambassador of Islamic Republic of Iran to the State of Qatar, HE Dr Ali Salehabadi, has commended the humanitarian aid being provided by Qatar to the people of Gaza Strip and its untiring efforts to mediate to stop the war on Gaza, Palestine.

He made the statement while addressing an iftar dinner he hosted at Hotel Sheraton Grand Doha to mark the International Quds Day to support the Palestinian people and the freedom of Al Quds. Present on the occasion among the guests were a number of dignitaries including ambassadors of different countries.

HE Dr Ali Salehabadi said that since the beginning of the genocide in Gaza, the brotherly State of Qatar has used its immense political and material resources to help the oppressed people of Palestine. In addition to mediating efforts for a temporary ceasefire and stopping the war, it has made great efforts to send humanitarian aid.

The envoy of Islamic Republic of Iran said that in the foreign policy of his country, the issue of Palestine is regarded as the most important in the Islamic world since the victory of the Iranian Islamic Revolution under the leadership of Imam Khomeini.

Since then, every year on last Friday of holy month of Ramadan, Muslims in different countries protest against the occupation by the Zionist regime with marches everywhere, he added.

The envoy of Islamic Republic of Iran highly commended the State of Qatar and those handful of countries that have reached out to send humanitarian aid for the people in Gaza strip in present severe situation.

HE Dr Ali Salehabadi stressed on the need to find a logical just and final solution based on democratic values and the realisation of the legitimate right of the Palestinian people.
