British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak met the leaders of Egypt and the Palestinian Authority in Cairo on Friday, agreeing with them on the need to allow humanitarian aid into Gaza and avoid civilian casualties in Israel's war with Hamas.

Sunak met with Egyptian President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi and Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas as part of a diplomatic tour of the Middle East. During the talks, Sunak stressed the need to avoid a wider regional conflict and prevent any further unnecessary loss of civilian life, his office said.

Sunak also visited Jerusalem on Thursday to show support for Israel and try to negotiate a way to secure the release of hostages taken by Hamas. He then met with Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman in Saudi Arabia, where he encouraged bin Salman to use Saudi leadership in the region to support stability.

In Friday's talks with Abbas, Sunak's office said he expressed "deep condolences" for the loss of civilian life in Gaza, including the destruction of the hospital.

Britain has said it is assessing the incident and has not said who it thinks was responsible for the blast./ CNA
