Cairo: French President Emmanuel Macron is set to begin a multi-day visit to Egypt on Sunday.

Macron stated that his visit to Egypt this week will include a trilateral summit with President Abdel Fattah El-Sisi and King Abdullah II of Jordan, addressing the urgent situation in Gaza. According to State Information Service Egypt, on Tuesday, he plans to travel to Arish city in North Sinai, 50 km from Gaza, to highlight concerns over the ongoing war. He will meet with humanitarian and security workers to emphasize his "constant mobilization in favor of a ceasefire," as stated by his office. His visit to Arish, a transit point for Gaza-bound aid, comes a month after Israel's decision to suspend assistance to the war-battered enclave after the first phase of a ceasefire between Israel and Hamas expired on 1 March. Two weeks later, Israel shattered a ceasefire that persisted for two month s in Gaza and brought home 38 captives, 30 of them alive.
