Iran proposes to Egypt joint humanitarian aid delivery to Gaza
The radio, Islamic Republic of Iran Broadcasting, IRIB, said that
Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif in a telephone
conversation with his Egyptian colleague last Sunday stressed the
importance of co-operation with Egypt for the earliest dispatch of food
and humanitarian supplies to the Gaza Strip.
The Iranian minister said the Islamic Republic sought to send humanitarian aid to Gaza without delay and also expressed readiness “to receive and place injured Palestinians in Iranian hospitals.” IRIB said the Egyptian foreign minister had supported this initiative.
Tehran had earlier repeatedly urged Cairo to open the border crossing point again in order to facilitate the delivery of food and medicaments for Gaza residents, affected by combat actions.
