A statement issued by the Jordanian Royal Court revealed that King Abdullah II, Egyptian President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi, and French President Emmanuel Macron will center their talks on addressing the perilous conditions in Gaza.
The summit comes amid intensified Israeli military operations in the Palestinian territory, where renewed airstrikes have reportedly resulted in over 1,300 fatalities and around 3,200 injuries since March 18—despite the existence of a ceasefire and a prisoner exchange agreement.
Last Saturday, President Macron announced his plans to travel to Egypt following an invitation from his Egyptian counterpart to attend the trilateral meeting.

The controversy deepens as the International Criminal Court issued arrest warrants last November for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and former Defense Minister Yoav Gallant on charges of war crimes and crimes against humanity in Gaza. Israel is also facing a genocide case at the International Court of Justice regarding its actions in the enclave.
