Safadi and Darchiashvili also discussed regional and international situations, particularly efforts to halt Israeli aggression on Gaza and end the resulting humanitarian catastrophe.

Safadi stressed that stopping the aggression on Gaza and the escalation against the Palestinian people and their Islamic and Christian holy site
s in occupied Jerusalem is the first step to preventing the region from sliding into a regional war.

The two ministers also discussed efforts to resolve the Ukrainian crisis and its regional and international repercussions.
