MUSCAT, March 28 (KUNA) -- Oman's Foreign Minister Badr Al-Busaidi and his Russian counterpart Sergey Lavrov discussed, over the telephone, Thursday the Israeli occupation war on the besieged Gaza Strip and the international efforts to reach a ceasefire and to ensure unrestricted flow of humanitarian aid.
The two ministers touched upon endeavors made by Russia for the Palestinian cause and the recent hosting of a meeting featured Palestinian factions in Moscow in order to unify Palestinians, Oman's Foreign Ministry said in a statement.
The Omani minister lauded Russia's support to the legitimate rights of Palestinians, it said.
