Foreign ministers from the 57-member Organisation for Islamic Cooperation (OIC) will meet at its headquarters in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, three days after the Arab League endorsed Egypt’s alternative plan for Gaza.
However, the plan, which does not outline a role for Hamas, which controls Gaza, was rejected by both the United States and Israel.
Trump’s Middle East envoy Steve Witkoff gave a more positive reaction, calling it a “good-faith first step from the Egyptians”.
Egyptian Foreign Minister Badr Abdelatty said his country, a mediator in the Hamas-Israel ceasefire talks, would seek OIC support to make the counter-proposal “both an Arab plan and an Islamic plan”.
“Egypt needs broad support” for its plan, said Rabha Seif Allam of the Al-Ahram Center for Political and Strategic Studies in Cairo.
Trump’s plan has united Arab countries in opposition, with Saudi Arabia also hosting Arab leaders two weeks ago to discuss alternatives.
“Bigger Muslim countries like Indonesia, Turkey and Iran will be there and their endorsement will further (strengthen) the Arab plan,“ he said.
The Arab League summit also announced the establishment of a trust fund to pay for Gaza’s reconstruction, and urged the international community to back it.
