Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi will attend a special session of the Organisation of Islamic Cooperation in Istanbul on Saturday, a Turkish foreign ministry source told Reuters, as the conflict with Israel escalates.
The 51st OIC Council of Foreign Ministers is expected to focus on Israel’s latest attacks, including Thursday’s strike on Iran’s Khondab nuclear site in Arak.
Israel said the targeted heavy-water reactor could produce weapons-grade plutonium. Turkey has condemned the attacks as illegal and backed Iran’s right to defend itself.
