Arab League says Israel sabotaged talks
Arab League chief Nabil al-Araby accuses Israel of having prevented an agreement for a ceasefire by sabotaging indirect talks in Cairo.
“Israel is undermining any kind of agreement leading to a ceasefire” in the Gaza Strip, Al-Araby tells reporters in Cairo. “The Arab League seeks to achieve a permanent ceasefire as soon as possible.”
