British Foreign Minister Cameron's Planned Visits to Jordan and Egypt This Week

British Foreign Minister David Cameron is set to visit Jordan and Egypt this week, according to an announcement by the Foreign Office on Wednesday.

His agenda includes advocating for a durable cease-fire and more humanitarian breaks in the Gaza conflict. During Cameron's second trip to the region, accompanied by Tariq Ahmad, Britain's Minister of State for the Middle East, they will work towards freeing all hostages, boosting aid to Gaza, and halting Hamas's rocket fire and threats against Israel.

While in Jordan, Cameron will meet with his counterpart Ayman Safadi. In Egypt, he is slated to visit Al Arish, near the Egypt-Gaza border, to assess the impact of UK's aid to Gaza.

Recently, Britain joined the European Union and other countries, such as Australia and Canada, in urging Israel to address settler violence in the West Bank. Furthermore, Cameron previously announced a ban preventing individuals linked to settler violence against Palestinians from entering the UK, mirroring an EU initiative.
