ANKARA, Nov 5 (Reuters) – Turkish Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan discussed the situation in Gaza with his Egyptian and Jordanian counterparts in separate phone calls, a Turkish diplomatic source said on Sunday.

Fidan exchanged perspectives on “stopping attacks on civilians in Gaza” and achieving an urgent ceasefire, he said.

Israel says it targets Hamas, not civilians, and that the Palestinian Islamist organization uses citizens as human shields.

Fidan also discussed efforts for the continued and unhindered delivery of humanitarian aid to Gaza with Egyptian Foreign Minister Sameh Shoukry, the source added.

Fidan will meet with U. S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken on Monday for talks on Gaza in Ankara. (Reporting via Editing by Leslie Adler)
