Referring to the participation of people from 47 countries in the Sumud humanitarian campaign aimed at breaking the Gaza siege and confronting the genocide of Palestinians, Baghaei stressed the need for all governments as well as the United Nations to support this campaign, hold the Zionist regime accountable, and immediately release those detained.
Referring to the transfer of the detainees of the Sumud Flotilla to the infamous Ktzi’ot Prison, which is known as a symbol of the Israeli regime’s torture and inhumane treatment of Palestinian prisoners, the senior Iranian diplomat underlined that the arrest of pro-Palestinian activists and transferring them to this prison, along with the insulting behavior of the Zionist regime’s minister of so-called internal security towards them, is another sign of the regime’s moral decline.
Expressing disgust at the continued support of the United States and some other Western countries for the genocide of the Palestinians, Baghaei said, “All governments have a legal and moral responsibility to stop the genocide and to try and punish the criminals.”
