Turkish Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan will hold talks in Saudi Arabia on Sunday and Monday as part of efforts to reach a ceasefire in Gaza, Turkish diplomatic sources said.
Fidan will meet members of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation and the Arab League in Riyadh, as well as foreign ministers from several Western countries, the sources said on Saturday, speaking on condition of anonymity. Diplomatic sources said the talks would also cover the delivery of humanitarian aid to Gaza.
The UN Security Council approved a resolution on March 25 calling for an immediate ceasefire, but it was never adopted. Fidan recently visited Qatar, which has been mediating between Israel and the Palestinian Hamas movement to try to end the war, which began with the massacres in southern Israel on October 7 and Israel's subsequent retaliation.
Fidan recently hosted his Egyptian counterpart and attended President Recep Erdogan's meeting with Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh on April 20 in Istanbul. /BGNES, AFP
