Egypt warns of implications of assassinations, sovereignty violations by Israel

CAIRO – 31 July 2024: Egypt condemned Wednesday the recent Israeli escalation policy, and warned of the implications of violating the sovereignty of states and assassinations.

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs demanded the UN Security Council and influential international powers to take action to stop the current perilous escalation in the Middle East, and inhibit security conditions from going out of control.

The statement noted that the escalation was simultaneous with the stalling of Gaza ceasefire negotiations, which reflected the absence of an Israeli political willpower for pacification.

The ministry lamented that the recent escalation undermined the efforts deployed by Egypt and partners to end the war in Gaza and put an end to the suffering of the Palestinian people.
