Arab League council

The meeting of the Arab League Council at the permanent delegates' level will discuss Thursday terrorist attacks on the Egyptian army forces in North Sinai, said Egypt's permanent delegate at the Arab League Tarek Adel.

In press statements Wednesday, Adel said that Egypt requested to hold the AL council meeting to brief the council on the outcome of the joint meeting between the Arab ministerial meeting assigned to implement the plan of action to end the Israeli occupation of the Palestinian territories.

The meeting was held with French Foreign Minister Laurent Fabius on June 20 in Cairo, he added.

The meeting will also discuss the latest developments in the Palestinian cause and Egypt's efforts in cooperation with a number of parties, including France and state members in the council to submit a new resolution for the UN Security Council to end the Israeli occupation according to a specific timetable, he said.
