President Xi Jinping urged visiting Egyptian Prime Minister Mostafa Madbouly to open a humanitarian corridor for civilians fleeing the fighting in Gaza.
Xi also reiterated China’s backing of the formation of a Palestinian state as a solution to the ongoing violence.
More than one million Palestinians, roughly half of Gaza’s population, have fled homes in the north and Gaza City after Israel ordered them to evacuate to “save themselves” as it readies a ground invasion.
