The Director-General of political affairs at the Moroccan Foreign Ministry, Ambassador Fouad Yazourh, held talks with his Israeli counterpart Alon Ushpiz.

Ushpiz is on a working visit to Morocco at the head of an Israeli delegation.

The two officials reviewed bilateral relations and ways to foster cooperation in political, economic, and cultural fields following the Morocco-US-Israel trilateral agreement signed in December 2020.

The two also exchanged views on regional and international issues of common interest, particularly the comprehensive challenges of combating terrorism, global warming, and sustainable development.

At the Ministry's headquarters, the Israeli delegation also discussed with representatives of government institutions, the business community, and the private sector on bilateral and tripartite economic levels.

French President Emmanuel Macron on Saturday said he would hold a trilateral summit on the situation in Gaza with Egypt President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi and Jordan's King Abdullah II.

Israel has pushed to seize territory in Gaza since the collapse of a short-lived truce in its war with Hamas, in what it has called a strategy to force the group to free hostages still in captivity.

Simultaneously, Israel has escalated attacks on Lebanon and Syria.

"In response to the Gaza emergency and during my visit to Egypt at President al-Sisi's invitation, we will hold a trilateral summit with the Egyptian president and the King of Jordan," Macron wrote on X ahead of his trip.

The French president is expected in Cairo on Sunday evening, where he will hold talks with his Egyptian counterpart on Monday morning.

The trilateral summit will be held the same day in the Egyptian capital, according to Macron's office.

On Tuesday, Macron will also visit the Egyptian port of El-Arish, 50 kilometers (30 miles) west of the Gaza Strip, to meet humanitarian and security workers and demonstrate his "constant mobilization in favor of a ceasefire".

El-Arish is a transit point for international aid intended for Gaza.
