Head of the Egyptian General Intelligence Service (GIS) Abbas Kamel headed to the Gaza Strip on Monday to hold meetings with the Palestinian powers and factions, state's news agency MENA reported. Kamel is accompanied by ministers from the Palestinian Authority. Kamel, leading a security delegation, left for Israel and the Palestinian territories on Sunday to discuss means to solidify the Egypt-brokered ceasefire in Gaza. During his visit, he held talks with Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Israeli Defense Minister Benny Gantz. Egypt brokered a ceasefire between Israel and Palestinian factions in the Gaza Strip, which came into effect on 21 May, ending 11 days of Israeli aggression on the enclave. The Israeli bombing campaign left more than 250 Palestinians dead, hundreds injured and homeless, while tens of residential and commercial buildings were demolished by Israeli air strikes.
