Arab ministers to meet EU counterparts to discuss ending Gaza war

A group of Arab ministers is set to meet with their European Union counterparts on Monday to discuss efforts to end Israel’s war on Gaza, Sven Koopmans, the European Union’s special representative for the Middle East peace process, said.

Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Jordan, Qatar, and the UAE will send representatives to a meeting with EU foreign ministers in Brussels.

The move comes after Ireland, Spain and Norway recognised a Palestinian state.
