The 52nd session of the Council of Foreign Ministers of the Organisation of Islamic Co-operation (OIC) began in Baghdad on Saturday, with regional conflicts and Palestine being the top agenda items. The two-day meeting, which is being held in Iraq for the first time in 45 years, aims to address Israel's attacks on Gaza, the recent Houthi strikes on Saudi Arabia, and crisis zones across the Islamic world.
Iraqi Prime Minister Ali Al Zaidi opened the meeting, calling for greater co-operation among Islamic countries to address mounting challenges, and announced the formation of an Iraqi initiative aimed at integrating energy grids, railway networks, transport, and digital communications among OIC countries. The meeting is also expected to discuss the Houthi attacks on Saudi Arabia and strengthen preventive diplomacy and the OIC's mediation unit to put an end to the crisis.
