Turkey, Iran, Qatar Speakers Discuss Gaza

TEHRAN (Fars) -- Iranian, Turkish and Qatari parliament speakers called on Egypt to reopen the Rafah border crossing to allow the supply of humanitarian aid to Gaza and transfer of the injured Palestinians to hospitals in the neighboring countries.
Iranian Parliament Speaker Ali Larijani in separate meetings with his Turkish and Qatari counterparts Cemil Cicek and Muhammad bin Mubarak Al-Khulaifi urged Egypt to open its Rafah crossing to allow the flow of humanitarian aid into Gaza. "The Islamic states at the present juncture should do their best to supply the necessary needs of the people in Gaza, including medicine and other humanitarian needs, and allow treatment of those injured in the savage attacks of the Zionists," Larijani said.
