CAIRO (AP) — Egypt’s president has held talks in Cairo with the King of Jordan and the president of the Palestinian Authority aimed at reviving the Middle East peace process and strengthening a cease-fire that halted the Israel-Hamas war. The meeting Thursday between Egypt’s Abdel Fattah el-Sissi, King Abdullah II of Jordan and the Palestinian Authority’s Mahmoud Abbas touched on recent diplomatic efforts aimed at reviving a two-state solution to the historical conflict. Israel opposes that. The May war between Israel and Hamas militants ended with an inconclusive Egyptian-brokered cease-fire.
