 Egyptian, Tunisian presidents reject displacement of Palestinians


Egyptian President Abdel-Fattah al-Sisi and his Tunisian counterpart Kais Saied reiterated their firm opposition to any efforts aimed at displacing Palestinians from their land or undermining their cause, Xinhua reported.


In a phone conversation, the leaders discussed the situation in the Gaza Strip, reviewing Egypt's initiatives to uphold the ceasefire and facilitate humanitarian aid delivery, according to a statement from the Egyptian presidency.


The statement also said that Saied praised Egypt's reconstruction plan for Gaza, adopted at a recent emergency Arab summit with unanimous support. The Tunisian leader emphasized his country's backing for the plan, highlighting its goal to rebuild Gaza without displacing its residents.

The conversation also addressed developments in Libya and Syria, with both leaders reaffirming their commitment to the stability, unity, and sovereignty of these nations over their entire territories, according to the statement.
