India to Iran: We are Committed to Continue Sending Humanitarian Aid to Palestine
India has maintained its support for a two-state solution following the outbreak of hostilities between Israel and Hamas. India has delivered 70 tonnes of humanitarian aid to Gaza since last month.
Indian Foreign Secretary Vinay Kwatra has told Iranian Foreign Minister Hossein Amir-Abdollahian that New Delhi was committed to continue sending humanitarian aid to Palestine, according to the Iranian foreign ministry.
Kwatra met Iran's top diplomat in Tehran on Sunday.
The Indian diplomat described Iran as an important power in the west Asian region, according to the Iranian readout.
The Indian foreign secretary stated that New Delhi was committed to expand
economic engagements with Tehran in the realms of agriculture, fisheries as well as medicine.
While New Delhi has condemned the Hamas' attack against Israel, it has also backed direct dialogue between Palestine and Israel towards a two-state solution.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi has condemned civilian casualties in the ongoing Israel-Hamas conflict. New Delhi has welcomed the
four-day humanitarian pause in fighting between Israel Defence Forces (IDF) and Hamas, which kicked in on 24 November.
