TEHRAN (IQNA) – A conference is planned to be held in the Senegalese capital of Dakar early next month to discuss support for the cause of Palestine.


Titled "Challenges in the Way of Coming Together in Support of Palestine”, it is slated for July 1, according to the Islamic Culture and Relations Organization.

The Iranian embassy and cultural center in Dakar and the African country’s Committee for Supporting Palestine will cooperate in holding the event.

It will be hosted by the Islamic Institute of Dakar on the occasion of the International Quds Day.

Every year on the last Friday of the Muslim holy month of Ramadan, worldwide rallies are held to commemorate the Palestinian people’s resistance against Israel and their struggles to liberate their territories which have been occupied by Israel for decades.

Millions of pro-Palestinian demonstrators, including Muslims and non-Muslims, take to the streets to denounce Israel’s atrocities against the people of Palestine.

This year’s Quds Day rallies will be held across the world on Friday, July 1.
