Putin and Sisi discuss Gaza developments

According to the source, the two leaders discussed an Egyptian initiative for ceasefire in the Gaza Strip and a host of regional issues, including developments in Iraq and Libya. The Egyptian Presidency has yet to issue a statement. The Kremlin has already issued a statement. Egypt is currently hosting indirect talks between Palestinian factions and Israel aimed at striking a long-term ceasefire in the Gaza Strip, which reeled under a month of Israeli attacks, which left 1886 people dead and more than 9800 others injured. Thousands of homes and facilities were also destroyed by the Israeli attacks.
