Egypt says using ‘all our strength’ to end Gaza war
Egyptian Foreign Minister Badr Abdelatty says his country is exerting maximum pressure to end the Israeli onslaught against the Gaza Strip.
“We are pressing with all our strength to end the war on Gaza, and we hope to reach an agreement to stop the bloodshed in Gaza as soon as possible,” Abdelatty said in a news conference in Cairo.
He stressed the “urgent need for unrestricted and full access of humanitarian aid to the Gaza Strip”. “It is unacceptable to use hunger as a weapon against the Palestinians in Gaza,” said Abdelatty.
Are you really? Egypt is also on the US' payroll, not making any efforts to open their side of the border with Gaza.
The red-line of Israel taking the Philadelphi corridor has come and gone long ago.
Saudi Arabia and Israel: From ‘normalisation’ to confrontation
Earlier, we reported on the foreign ministers of Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Jordan, and Bahrain, alongside the secretary-general of the Arab League, being blocked by Israel from visiting the occupied West Bank to hold talks on the establishment of a Palestinian state.
Had the visit gone ahead, the delegation’s head, Prince Faisal bin Farhan, would have become the first Saudi foreign minister to visit the West Bank.
Firas Maksad, managing director for the Middle East and North Africa at Eurasia Group, said Israel’s rejection of the visit indicated “how far Saudi and Israel have moved from normalisation to diplomatic confrontation”.
The planned visit “underscores just how much the Saudi position has shifted away from creating a credible pathway towards a Palestinian state through conditional normalisation with Israel, to one that aims to create such a path via an international coalition in support of Palestinian aspirations”, Maksad said.
There won't be much confrontation, Saudi-Arabia just signed a $600 billion deal with Trump and relies on US military protection.

However normalisation with Israel is getting further off the table.
