Egypt's Foreign Minister Sameh Shoukry stressed on Thursday 19/10/2023 that the possibility of liquidating the Palestinian cause through the forced displacement of the Palestinian people to other neighboring countries is 'unthinkable' and 'cannot happen'.
During a joint press conference with UN Secretary General Antonio Guterres in Cairo, Shoukry said that they discussed the continuing escalations in Gaza and its devastating impact on the Palestinian people.
Shoukry added:"I completely agree with the UN Secretary-General that targeting humanitarian and UN headquarters is a flagrant violation of humanitarian law and must stop immediately.""We are seeking to make the crossing operating again in order to enter the aid to Gaza, despite the continuous bombing by the Israeli side."
He expressed Egypt's appreciation to the efforts of the UN Secretary-General and his keenness to be present in person to supervise the crossing of humanitarian aid into Gaza. US President Joe Biden said in statements on Wednesday that Egyptian President Abdel Fattah al Sisi has agreed to open the Rafah crossing to allow about 20 trucks carrying humanitarian aid to Gaza.There was a problem processing your submission.
