Erdogan said to reporters on the plane returning from Egypt that “the Gaza agreement signed in Egypt does not represent a solution to the Palestinian problem, but rather a ceasefire agreement.” He added that “the reconstruction and recovery of Gaza is extremely important.” He continued, “We discussed the countries that could participate in the reconstruction efforts alongside Turkey,” emphasizing the necessity for the ceasefire in Gaza to be sustainable and free from any violations.
The Turkish president affirmed that “Turkey, the United States, and other countries are determined to ensure the continuation of the ceasefire in the Gaza Strip,” adding, “We must continue to stand with Gaza and hold accountable those responsible for genocide crimes.”
Egypt hosted a peace summit in Sharm El Sheikh yesterday, presided over by Egyptian President Abdel Fattah El-Sisi and his American counterpart Donald Trump, with the participation of leaders and delegations from about 20 countries.
Over two years of continuous Israeli war on the Gaza Strip, the medical sector, schools, universities, places of worship, infrastructure, and vital resources supporting life in the strip were destroyed. Fifteen vital sectors in Gaza were destroyed, and the attacks left large numbers of Palestinian civilian casualties and injuries.
The government media office in Gaza announced on the second anniversary of the start of the war on the Gaza Strip that the Israeli army still controls over 80% of the area and continues bombing despite ceasefire calls announced by U.S. President Donald Trump. The Israeli army targets densely populated civilian and displaced areas.
Trump announced yesterday at a press conference during the Sharm El Sheikh peace summit on Gaza, attended by several regional and international leaders, the signing of a “historic” war cessation document between “Hamas” and Israel as part of efforts to achieve peace in the Middle East.
