He stressed that October 7 was a wake-up call to the world to fight terrorism together. "It is unfortunate that even when faced with those horrific atrocities, there were some who had difficulty condemning terrorism or acknowledging the danger."

"This is a test, a test of civilization, and we will win. And we expect all the countries that lined up to fight ISIS, to line up and fight Hamas because Hamas is the new ISIS," the Prime Minister posted on X.
Coming back to the Cairo Peace Summit, UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres had said the "reprehensible assault" by Hamas can never justify the collective punishment of the Palestinian people, UN News reported on Saturday. his remarks at the Cairo Peace Summit, was convened by Egyptian President Abdel Fattah El-Sisi in a bid to de-escalate hostilities following the deadly Hamas attack.
"The grievances of the Palestinian people are legitimate and long, but nothing can justify the reprehensible assault by Hamas that terrorized Israeli civilians. At the same time, these abhorrent attacks can never justify the collective punishment of the Palestinian people," UN News quoted Guterres as saying.
