AhlulBayt News Agency (ABNA): Iranian Foreign Minister Hossein Amirabdollahian has called on the United Nations Human Rights Council to form a team of experts to record crimes committed by the Zionist regime in the Gaza Strip.
Amirabdollahian met and held talks with United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights Volker Türk on Wednesday.
Stressing the importance of the role of the High Commissioner for Human Rights in helping to end the ongoing tragedy in Gaza and pointing out the inability of the Security Council to fulfill its role, Amirabdollahian proposed that the Human Rights Council hold an extraordinary meeting to discuss and exchange views of UN member states to help find a solution.
He also suggested that the Human Rights Council form a team of experts to record what the Zionist regime has done and is doing in Gaza.
It is in the interest of all parties to work to end the aggression, lift the blockade, dispatch humanitarian aid, and prevent the displacement of the people of Gaza, the top Iranian diplomat added.
Volker Türk, for his part, expressed his happiness with the meeting and pointed to his recent trip to the Rafah region on the Gaza border, describing the humanitarian conditions in Gaza and even the West Bank as very worrying.
Explaining his and the UN Secretary General's efforts to help Gaza exit from the current situation, he noted that it is clear that taking action to stop the war is very necessary.
He further noted that “we must make maximum efforts to find a solution to this complicated and deplorable situation and prevent the war from spreading and the situation from becoming more complicated".
