STORYLINE:
Egyptian President Abdel-Fattah al-Sisi met with visiting U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken on Thursday to discuss the escalating situation in Gaza, the Egyptian presidency said.
The talks, which included Egypt's Foreign Minister Sameh Shoukry and intelligence chief Abbas Kamel, focused on the conflict in Gaza and efforts to mediate a ceasefire and prisoner exchange, according to the presidency's statement.
Al-Sisi emphasized the urgent need for a ceasefire, citing a humanitarian crisis and famine in the besieged coastal territory that threatens civilian lives, particularly in the city of Rafah, where nearly 1.5 million Palestinian refugees are seeking sanctuary.
