Senior Sunni Cleric: Palestine issue is an Islamic and Arabic one

One of the prominent religious clerics of Sistan and Balouchistan Province, Molavi Nazir Ahmad Salami underscored the importance of Muslims unity over the issue of Palestine.

Speaking in the second day the first international Conference of Islamic World Scholars in Defense of Palestine Resistance, One of the prominent religious clerics of Sistan and Balouchistan Province, Molavi Nazir Ahmad Salami underscored the importance of Muslims unity over the issue of Palestine and mentioned,"Palestine is a humane, Islamic and Arabic issue,".

The religious cleric underlined although Palestine is an Arabic land and in this regard many Arab people did their duties, but most of Arab leaders did not act well in this regard, turning a blind eye over the issue.

The member of the Supreme Council of the World Forum for Proximity of the Islamic Schools of Thought underscored all Muslims worldwide condemned willful measures and vandalism perpetrated by Israel in Gaza, staging demonstration and gave speech in this regard.

The Israeli military unleashed aerial attacks on Gaza in early July and later expanded its military campaign with a ground invasion into the Palestinian territory.

Over 2,130 Palestinians lost their lives and some 11,000 were injured in the raids. Tel Aviv also says 68 Israeli soldiers have died in the war, but Palestinian resistance movement Hamas puts the number at more than 150.
