Egypt, France call for "urgent solutions" to Gaza conflict

TEHRAN, Nov. 19 (MNA) – Egyptian President Abdel-Fattah al-Sisi and his French counterpart Emmanuel Macron stressed on Saturday the need for finding "urgent solutions" to the ongoing crisis in the war-torn Gaza Strip.

During a phone conversation,  Abdel-Fattah al-Sisi and Emmanuel Macron exchanged views on the latest developments regarding the military escalation in the Palestinian enclave, the Egyptian Presidency said in a statement.

The two leaders agreed on the importance of finding urgent solutions to the ongoing crisis and taking action to ensure the delivery of humanitarian aid into the besieged Gaza Strip, the statement said.

They also emphasized the importance of starting a comprehensive political process to reach a just settlement for the Palestinian issue based on the two-state solution.

Sisi stressed the necessity of an immediate ceasefire and the expansion of humanitarian aid into the Gaza Strip.

The Israeli regime's raids in the occupied West Bank have increased since Tel Aviv launched its huge air and ground assault on Gaza in response to Hamas’s October 7 operation, which health a heavy blow to the occupying regime after killing more than 1,400 soldiers and settlers.

According to Gaza's government media office, the Palestinian death toll in the enclave has exceeded 12,000 since the start of the Zionist regime's onslaught.
