An urgent meeting of the OIC is taking place in the Saudi
city of Jeddah to discuss the escalating Israeli-Palestinian conflict, after
a blast at a Gaza hospital late on Tuesday killed large numbers of
Palestinians.
"The foreign minister calls for an immediate and
complete embargo on Israel by Islamic countries, including oil sanctions, in
addition to expelling Israeli ambassadors if relations with the Zionist regime
have been established," the Iranian foreign ministry said in a statement.
Amirabdollahian also called for the formation of a team of
Islamic lawyers to document potential war crimes committed by Israel in Gaza.
Prior to the blast at the Gaza hospital on Tuesday, health
authorities in Gaza said at least 3,000 people had died during
Israel's 11-day bombardment that began after a Hamas October 07 rampage on
southern Israeli communities in which 1,300 people were killed and around 200
were taken into Gaza as hostages
