A domino of developments is coming in the Middle East as Jordan recalled its ambassador from Israel and advised the Israeli ambassador to leave while other states in the region are expected to do the same.
At the same time, Iranian Foreign Minister Hossein Amir Abdullahian went to Ankara and met with Turkish Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan and RT Erdogan.
The head of Turkish and Iranian diplomacy Hakan Fidan and Hossein Amir Abdullahian today asked Ankara to convene an international conference to avoid regional conflict in the Middle East as soon as possible.
"The Iranian president proposed a conference with local leaders, Muslim and Arab countries as soon as possible to end the war" in Gaza, the Iranian foreign minister said during a joint press conference with his Turkish ministerial counterpart in Ankara
"The countries of the region must assume their responsibilities. Otherwise, this cycle of violence will continue in the region," Hakan Fidan said for his part.
"We do not want the human tragedy of Gaza to turn into a conflict that will affect the countries of the region," he continued, expressing his "concern".
"We are concerned about the geographical spread of the conflict. We have discussed this with our Iranian brother, (according to whom) there are strong indications that other armed elements in the region could also intervene in the conflict if the conditions do not change, Hakan Fidan insisted .
"A ceasefire and peace are more important than ever," added the Turkish foreign minister.
For his part, the Iranian foreign minister warned that if the attacks on the Gaza Strip continue, the consequences will be severe.
"If there is no immediate ceasefire in the Gaza Strip and if the attacks by the US and the Zionist regime continue, then the consequences will be severe," he said, without giving details of Tehran's plans.
Amir Abdollahian said that a visit by Iranian President Ibrahim Raishi to Turkey very soon is on the agenda.
