Egyptian President calls for 'decisive stand' to push for truce in Gaza

A statement from the Egyptian presidency reported that Egyptian President Abdel Fattah el-Sisi said on Wednesday that providing more assistance to Palestinians in Gaza requires a "decisive stand" from the international community to push for a ceasefire.

El-Sisi met with Jordan's King Abdullah and Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas in the Jordanian city of Aqaba on the Red Sea, where the three leaders rejected any efforts or proposals they claimed aimed at "settling the Palestinian issue."
