We also have comments made by Abdel Fattah el-Sisi at the Arab League meeting in Baghdad.

Speaking at the opening of the event, the Egyptian president said the “region is faced with complicated challenges and unprecedented conditions”.

El-Sisi called on leaders to adopt a stance “firmly united in words and in action”.

“It is no secret that the Palestinian cause is living one of its darkest and gravest moments,” he said.

“The Palestinian people are going through organised and systematic crimes, and brutal practices for more than one and a half years, aiming at exterminating and ending their existence in the Gaza Strip,” el-Sisi added.

The president stressed that “the Israeli war machine did not leave any building standing or show any mercy to any child or woman” during the war, adding that it has used “starvation as a weapon”.
