Israel's Netanyahu says he will be unable to attend Gaza summit in Egypt

Israel’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu will not attend Monday's Gaza summit in the Egyptian resort town of Sharm el-Sheikh because it coincides with a Jewish holiday, his office said.

"Prime Minister Netanyahu was invited by U.S. President Donald Trump to attend a conference in Egypt today," his office said in a statement.

"The prime minister thanked President Trump for the invitation but said he would be unable to attend due to the timing coinciding with the start of the holiday" of Simhat Torah, which begins Monday evening and continues until sunset Tuesday.

Earlier, Egypt's presidency said Netanyahu had been invited to attend following a call between U.S. President Donald Trump, Egyptian President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi, and the Israeli premier.
