Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan held a phone call with Oman’s Foreign Minister Sayyid Badr al-Busaidi on Sunday. The two diplomats discussed the situation in Gaza and regional security issues, Turkish diplomatic sources said. They also discussed cooperation between the two nations, according to the sources.
Israel has killed more than 25,000 people in the Gaza Strip since a cross-border attack by Hamas on Oct. 7, which Tel Aviv says killed nearly 1,200 people.
The offensive has left 85% of Gaza’s population internally displaced amid acute shortages of food, clean water and medicine, while more than half of the enclave’s infrastructure is damaged or destroyed, according to the U.N.
Fidan on Tuesday will participate in the U.N. Security Council meeting addressing “the situation in the Middle East, including the Palestinian question,” the Foreign Ministry said Sunday. During his visit to New York, Fidan is also set to hold bilateral meetings.
