Saudi Foreign Minister Prince Faisal bin Farhan bin Abdullah and British Foreign Secretary David Cameron held talks on the developments in Gaza in London on Thursday.

Prince Faisal stressed that the international community, especially the permanent members of the United Nations Security Council, including the UK, must fulfill their responsibilities towards intensifying efforts aimed at a ceasefire and ensure the provision of relief corridors for the urgent delivery of humanitarian food and medical aid to the Gaza Strip.

Prince Faisal focused on creating conditions for the return of stability and the restoration of a comprehensive and just peace process that guarantees the legitimate rights of the Palestinian people.

Prince Faisal and Cameron underlined the importance of taking all necessary steps to stop the fighting and ensure that violence does not escalate in order to achieve full protection for civilians.

They also reviewed bilateral relations between their countries and ways to develop them in various fields.

Cameron held a lunch banquet in honor of Prince Faisal and his accompanying delegation.

The meeting and the lunch banquet were attended by Director General of the Office of the Minister of Foreign Affairs Abdulrahman Al-Dawood.

Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) Secretary-General Jasem Albudaiwi strongly condemned on Friday the Israeli airstrike near the presidential palace in Damascus.

He stated that this act by the Israeli occupation forces is a grave violation that undermines security and stability in the region and reflects a pattern of escalating tensions in the Middle East.

Albudaiwi underlined the GCC's complete rejection and condemnation of all Israeli violations that threaten the sovereignty, stability, and security of Syria and its people.

He stressed the importance of respecting Syria's sovereignty, independence, and territorial integrity, rejecting any external interference in its internal affairs.

The security and stability of Syria are crucial for regional and international peace, he added.
