01 · THE DISPATCH

Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi spoke by phone Wednesday with Hamas political bureau member Basem Naim, according to the Iranian state news agency Tasnim. Araghchi said the Iranian negotiating team raises at international forums and in talks with mediators and the US what he called 'Israel's ongoing aggression in Gaza, continued violations, and continued genocide.'

The call comes a day after Naim thanked Iran for securing a ceasefire in a previous conversation, as The Zioneer reported Tuesday. In that call, Araghchi affirmed continued Iranian support. Wednesday's readout from Tasnim focuses on Iran's diplomatic messaging rather than new ceasefire developments.

The fresh phone call underscores Tehran's sustained coordination with Hamas as indirect negotiations with the US continue. Araghchi's language — referencing 'genocide' — aligns with long-standing Iranian rhetoric rather than any new official finding.
