President Abdel Fattah El Sisi warned that the continuation of the military operations in Gaza will cause uncontrollable security and military consequences. 

President El Sisi asserted, during a joint press conference with German Chancellor Olaf Scholz, that Egypt reject any attempts of using military instruments to end the crisis of Palestine, and the Israeli attempts to force Palestinians to leave their lands.

He pointed out that Egypt will continue its support to Palestine, and Palestinian rights to have their own land and state. 

The President highlighted that the Israeli military actions in Gaza are deeply dangerous, adding that those actions don't only target fighting Hamas, but they attempt to force Palestinians to immigrate to Egypt.

President El Sisi continued that Egypt is a country of sovereignty, and Egypt is keen to maintain peace as a strategic route since signing the peace treaty with Israel, seeking to support the same route to support other nations. 

He also mentioned that Egyptians reject the Israeli actions against Palestinians in Gaza, including forcing them to abandon their lands, adding that the Egyptians are ready to take the streets to protest the attempts to force Palestinians to immigrate from Gaza. 

President El Sisi also asserted that Egypt didn't close Rafah Border Crossing, but the continued Israeli attacks on it have hindered its activities.
