Head of Egypt’s State Information Service, Diaa Rashwan threatened on Wednesday that Egypt may withdraw as a mediator in Gaza ceasefire negotiations.
This came after CNN's report which claimed that Egyptian intelligence changed terms of recent truce proposal and scuttled a deal.
“Attempts to cast doubt and offend Egypt’s mediation efforts will only lead to further complications of the situation in Gaza and the entire region and may push Egypt to completely withdraw from its mediation in the current conflict,” Rashwan said in a statement.
Moreover, he added that Cairo’s participation as a mediator resulted from “repeated requests and insistence” from Israel and US.
