A number of leaders from the Middle East and Europe have gathered in Cairo, Egypt, for a summit to discuss the potential de-escalation of the Israel-Hamas war.
Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas told world leaders Palestinians would not be forced off their land.
Abbas is head of the Palestinian Authority, which has control over areas of the occupied West Bank, but not the Hamas-run Gaza Strip.
Egyptian President Abdel Fattah El-Sisi said his aim was to end the humanitarian disaster in the Gaza Strip and revive a path to peace between the Israelis and Palestinians.
The meeting, called the Summit for Peace, also included officials from Jordan, Qatar, Italy, Spain, the EU and UK. Israel, the US and Iran did not attend.
