Egyptian President Abdel Fattah el-Sisi has warned US Secretary of State Antony Blinken of the risk of the war in Gaza expanding regionally in a way “difficult to imagine”, Al Jazeera reports.
“The ceasefire in Gaza must be the beginning of broader international recognition of the Palestinian state and the implementation of the two-state solution, as this is the basic guarantor of stability in the region,” he added as the two met in El Alamein.
“The time has come to end the ongoing war, and to resort to wisdom, and to uphold the language of peace and diplomacy,” el-Sisi said in a statement, adding all parties must be wary of the “danger of the conflict expanding regionally”.
