Diplomatic efforts by world leaders are under way to try to stop The Conflict in Gaza escalating or dragging in other countries in the region.

On Sunday, US Secretary of State Anthony Blinken was in Egypt, with which Gaza shares a Border , for talks with the country's president, Abdel Fattah el-Sisi.

It was the latest stop on a tour that saw Mr Blinken hold talks in Jordan, Qatar, Bahrain, Saudi Arabia , and The United Arab Emirates as well as Israel.

Concerns continues to mount about The Situation inside Gaza and conditions for people still trapped there.
