Saudi Foreign Minister Prince Faisal bin Farhan discussed in a telephone conversation on Saturday with his US counterpart, Antony Blinken, the Gaza truce proposal announced by President Joe Biden a day earlier.
The Saudi minister expressed during the call the Kingdom’s support for all efforts aimed at an immediate ceasefire, the complete withdrawal of Israeli occupation forces, the urgent entry of humanitarian aid to civilians affected by the Israeli offensive, and the safe return of displaced persons to their homes.
Farhan emphasized the need to seriously address any proposal that achieves a permanent ceasefire and ends the suffering of the Palestinian people in Gaza.
