Algeria, Iran Discuss Desecration of Islamic Sanctities
TEHRAN -- Iranian Foreign Minister Hussein Amir-Abdollahian has called for an international mechanism aimed at stopping measures that desecrate religious values and holy sites.
The top Iranian diplomat made the call during a phone conversation with his Algerian counterpart Ramtane Lamamra, in the wake of the recent insulting cartoons published by French magazine Charlie Hebdo and the visit by an Israeli far-right minister to the Al-Aqsa Mosque compound in occupied Al-Quds.
