STORYLINE:
Egyptian President Abdel-Fattah al-Sisi met on Sunday with U.S. Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) Director William Burns in Cairo, where they addressed joint mediation efforts to reach a ceasefire in the besieged Palestinian Gaza Strip.
"The meeting focused on the joint Egyptian-Qatari-American efforts to reach a ceasefire in the Gaza Strip," the Egyptian presidency said in a statement.
The talks between Sisi and Burns underlined the crucial need for intensified efforts to restore calm and halt the military escalation in the Palestinian enclave.
They both agreed on the vital importance of protecting civilians and the gravity of any Israeli military escalation in Rafah City in southern Gaza, rejecting the displacement of the Palestinians from their lands.
During the meeting, the Egyptian president "underscored the dire humanitarian catastrophe in Gaza, which has led to widespread famine in the strip," calling for urgent international efforts and pressures for the immediate and unfettered flow of much-needed humanitarian aid and relief to Gaza.
Israel has been launching a massive aggression in Gaza over the past six months, which has so far killed 33,175 Palestinians and wounded 75,886 others, according to the update released by Gaza's Health Ministry on Sunday.
The Israeli escalation followed a surprise attack by Hamas on adjacent Israeli towns on Oct. 7, 2023, killing about 1,200 Israelis and taking over 250 others hostage.
Egypt, Qatar, and the United States mediated a week-long truce between Israel and Hamas that ended in late November 2023, which included a swap between Palestinian prisoners and Israeli hostages and more humanitarian aid delivery to Gaza.
In late March, the United Nations Security Council adopted a resolution demanding an immediate ceasefire in Gaza, but it is yet to be implemented by the two parties of the conflict.
