Tehran, April 8 Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarf will tour Pakistan and Oman to convey Iran’s deep concern about the humanitarian plight in Yemen due to the Saudi-led air raids, foreign ministry spokesperson Marzieh Afkham said on Tuesday.
The Saudi Air Force perpetrated crimes against humanity and war crimes in war-torn Yemen by indiscriminate bombardment of civilian targets killing scores, state run news agency IRNA reported.
