Omani Parliament Speaker: Palestine on Difficult Path
TEHRAN (Tasnim) – The chairman of Oman’s Majlis al-Shura highlighted the sufferings inflicted on the Palestinian people in the occupied territories and the Gaza Strip and said their rights are vehemently denied by the Zionist regime of Israel.
Today, Palestine is on a difficult path and its people are suffering a lot, Khalid bin Hilal bin Nasser Al Mawali said in an address to the 6th International Conference on Palestinian Intifada in Tehran on Tuesday.
Acts of aggression have been made against the Palestinian nation and the Zionist regime is seeking to ignore the rights of the people, the Omani parliamentarian said.
He further called on all Muslims around the globe to support the Palestinian cause and the establishment of a state with the holy Quds as its capital.
The international conference on Palestine opened in Tehran on Tuesday with around 700 foreign officials and intellectuals, including 18 parliament speakers, in attendance.
Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyed Ali Khamenei was the keynote speaker at the gathering.
In his speech, Imam Khamenei said the third Palestinian intifada (uprising) will begin a very important chapter in the history of the Palestinian nation's fighting and will inflict another defeat on the Zionist regime of Israel.
In recent years, the concept of resistance has attracted a great deal of attention across the Muslim world.
It refers mainly to the courage and fortitude shown by the people of Palestine, who have withstood Israel’s crimes for years.
