In a televised press conference that was also attended by visiting German Foreign Minister Annalena Baerbock in the Egyptian capital Cairo, Shoukry said they had discussed the situation in Gaza, Israel's ongoing war in the coastal enclave, and its devastating humanitarian repercussions.
The two officials also discussed the delivery of relief aid to the besieged Gaza Strip and means to maintain the unity of Gaza and the West Bank, according to Shoukry.
In addition, the two sides talked about achieving a ceasefire in Gaza, Xinhua reported.
Baerbock added that while both countries should cooperate to bring about peace, there are not enough humanitarian supplies to meet the needs of the about two million Palestinians living in the Gaza Strip. Therefore, coordinated action is needed to avoid obstructing the flow of relief to those in need.
