The Secretary of State for Foreign, Commonwealth, and Development Affairs of the United Kingdom, David Cameron, concluded his Middle East tour with a meeting in Istanbul on Friday, where he met with Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan and Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan.
Mr. Cameron's tour took him to Israel, Ramallah, and Qatar, where he held discussions with Emir Tamim ibn Hamad Al Thani.
The tour primarily focused on the ongoing conflict between Israel and Hamas and the efforts to enhance food aid to Gaza.
A senior Hamas leader, Khaled Mechaal, said on Sunday that the Palestinian terrorist group would not give up its weapons and would reject any form of foreign control over the Gaza Strip, despite calls from the United States for its disarmament.
The White House is planning the first leaders meeting for President Donald Trump's so-called "Board of Peace" in relation to Gaza on February 19, Axios reported on Friday, citing a U.S. official and diplomats from four countries that are on the board.
Turkey is laying the groundwork to restrict social media access for minors with a parliamentary report this week calling for broad measures including age verification and content filtering, joining a growing list of countries seeking tighter controls.
