Egyptian President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi and Jordanian King Abdullah II convened at Cairo’s Al-Ittihadiyah Palace, calling for an urgent ceasefire in Gaza to facilitate crucial humanitarian assistance. The leaders emphasized their rejection of any attempts to undermine the Palestinian cause or displace Palestinians from their homeland, affirming that the sole solution endorsed by the international community must prioritize an immediate ceasefire alongside humanitarian aid.

Their joint statement further advocated for a “fair and comprehensive solution” in the Israel-Palestine conflict, advocating for the establishment of an independent Palestinian state with its capital in East Jerusalem, based on the 1967 borders.
