He urged Western leaders to understand the gravity of such condemned actions and put an end to the denigration of Muslims through such disgraceful acts.
In response to a question, Ashrafi highlighted that Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman had categorically emphasized the importance of resolving the Palestine issue and improving the lives of Palestinians in his recent interview.
