AhlulBayt News Agency (ABNA): The second edition of an international conference on Islamic unity got underway in the Iraqi capital of Baghdad.
Shia and Sunni scholars, figures and officials from 9 countries are taking part in the international event.
They include Secretary General of the World Forum for Proximity of Islamic Schools of Thought (WFPIST) Hojat-ol-Islam Hamid Shahriari from Iran, Sheikh Ibrahim Zakzaky from Nigeria, Sheikh Ahmed Badreddin Hasoun from Syria, Sheikh Musa Ideen from Turkey, Sheikh Hussain Ma’tuq from Kuwait, Mawlawi Habibullah Hisam from Afghanistan, Mustafa Siric from Bosnia and Herzegovina, and Sayyid Ali Fadhlallah from Lebanon.
The theme of this year’s conference is the Al-Aqsa Flood Operation and support for the oppressed nation of Palestine and the Gaza Strip.
The Al-Aqsa Flood Operation was carried out by the Palestinian resistance movement Hamas against the Israeli regime on October 7, 2023.
Since then, the Israeli regime has launched a genocidal war on the Gaza Strip that has so far killed nearly 35,000 people, mostly women and children.
