Trilateral summit in Cairo to address Gaza crisis
French President Emmanuel Macron has announced a trilateral summit focused on the escalating situation in Gaza. The summit, scheduled for Monday in Cairo, will bring together Macron, Egyptian President Abdel Fattah El-Sisi, and Jordan’s King Abdullah II. This meeting is part of Macron’s official visit to Egypt, taking place on Monday and Tuesday.
According to Macron’s post on X (formerly Twitter), the summit is being organized in response to the ongoing emergency in Gaza. He is expected to arrive in Cairo on Sunday evening, followed by a bilateral meeting with President al-Sissi on Monday morning before the summit takes place.
The French president will also travel on Tuesday to the city of al-Arish, located about 50 kilometers from Gaza, where he plans to meet with humanitarian and security organizations. This visit is intended to reaffirm his continued support for a ceasefire in the region.
The summit comes as the Israeli military resumes its offensive in Gaza after a fragile two-month truce with Hamas. The renewed fighting follows unprecedented attacks by Hamas on Israel on October 7, 2023.
On Saturday, Hamas’s armed wing released a video showing two Israeli hostages in Gaza, claiming they had survived a recent Israeli airstrike. Meanwhile, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu maintains that increasing military pressure is the only way to force Hamas to release the remaining hostages, whether alive or deceased—an approach that has been widely opposed by many families of those still held captive.
