Cairo, Dec 4 (NationPress) Egyptian Foreign Minister Badr Abdelatty and his Syrian counterpart Bassam Sabbagh engaged in a telephone discussion on Wednesday about the latest developments in Syria and their implications for the security and stability of both Syria and the broader region.
Abdelatty reiterated Egypt's steadfast and supportive position for the unity, safety, and sovereignty of Syria, emphasizing the critical need to safeguard civilians, as stated by the Egyptian Foreign Ministry and reported by Xinhua news agency.
The two senior diplomats also deliberated on the Arab support for Syria within the context of the Arab League amid the ongoing developments.
A sudden offensive initiated by a coalition of rebel terrorist groups last week in Syria's Aleppo province has spread further across the nation, which has been grappling with the consequences of a 13-year civil war.
After capturing most of Aleppo over the weekend, rebel forces are now advancing southward and engaging in clashes with government troops for territorial control in Syria.
