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.
Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Gallant told his U.S. counterpart that military operations in the Gaza Strip have created conditions that would enable a hostage deal to be reached, Gallant's office said on Wednesday.
A meeting of the United Nations Security Council on the Middle East was briefly interrupted on Wednesday when two protesters stood with signs and yelled for the release of Israeli hostages held by Palestinian militants Hamas in the Gaza Strip.
The U.S. military announced on Wednesday that its mission to install and operate a temporary, floating pier off the coast of Gaza was complete, formally ending an extraordinary but troubled effort to bring humanitarian aid to Palestinians.
