27 January 2009 [15:14] - TODAY.AZ
The Islamic Party of Azerbaijan is planning to hold a protest near Israeli embassy to Baku, said spokesman for the party Haji Akif Heydarli.
He said the party has already sent a letter to Baku mayor's office with the request to sanction the picket.

"The action protests Israel's offensive in Gaza. During it we will call on international organizations to recognize Israel's actions in Gaza as a genocide of Palestinians. Moreover, we will raise the issue of occupation of Muslim areas and demand to release them", noted he.

Notably, the action is expected to involve about 50 activists of the party.
