Egyptian Foreign Minister Badr Abdelatty and his Saudi counterpart Faisal bin Farhan Al Saud discussed on Sunday efforts to resume the ceasefire agreement in the Gaza Strip.

During a phone conversation, the two sides tackled ensuring the implementation of the three stages of the Gaza ceasefire agreement in light of the dangerous Israeli escalation in the region, according to a statement by the Egyptian Foreign Ministry.

The two ministers discussed the upcoming moves of the Arab-Islamic Ministerial Committee and its activities with international parties regarding the Arab plan for early recovery and reconstruction of the Gaza Strip.

They also reviewed a number of regional issues and exchanged views on the latest developments related to these crises.

Israel ended a two-month ceasefire with Hamas on March 18 and resumed air and ground assaults on the Palestinian enclave.
