Arab News reported that on August 5, at a meeting with Turkish Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan in Cairo, Arab League (AL) Secretary General Ahmed Aboul Gheit warned that the serious risks posed by the above mutual retaliations could push the Middle East into a dangerous spiral of violence.

According to him, the international community needs to protect the Palestinian people, especially the people of Gaza, who are suffering from daily fierce attacks by Israel.

In addition, there is an immediate need for a ceasefire in Gaza, urgent humanitarian aid, and a credible roadmap to a two-state solution.

On the same day, Mr. Fidan also met with Egyptian President Abdel-Fattah El-Sisi and discussed the regional situation.

President El-Sisi called on the international community to step up joint efforts to enforce the ceasefire in the Gaza Strip and create opportunities for political and diplomatic solutions, stressing that this would help ease the escalating tensions in the Middle East.

Stressing that the Middle East is at a dangerous moment and the current situation requires the highest level of restraint from all parties, the Egyptian leader called for current regional developments not to affect efforts to provide humanitarian aid to the Palestinian people in the Gaza Strip.

Both Cairo and Ankara have condemned Israel's escalating policies in the region, calling for a comprehensive solution to the Palestinian issue based on a two-state solution to achieve lasting justice, security and stability in the region.

On August 5, Press TV news agency reported that Iran's acting Foreign Minister Ali Bagheri Kani and Hungarian Foreign Minister Peter Szijjarto also had a phone call to discuss recent developments in the Middle East and the assassination of Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh on July 31 in Tehran.

Mr. Kani said that the assassination of Mr. Haniyeh was an act of violating the security, territorial integrity, and sovereignty of Iran as well as threatening regional peace and international security. Tehran accused Israel of causing the incident, while the country did not directly deny it.

On the Hungarian side, Mr. Szijjarto expressed deep concern about the situation in Lebanon and the escalating tensions, and called on the international community to take measures to prevent the crisis, because "these tensions could threaten Europe".

Qatari Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Sheikh Mohammed bin Abdulrahman bin Jassim Al Thani also had a phone call with US Secretary of State Antony Blinken on August 5 about the situation in the Middle East and called on all parties to exercise restraint and ease tensions.
