WEF LIVE: World Economic Forum Panel Discusses West Asia Crisis to Push for Peace in War-Torn Gaza

As the Israel-Hamas war rages in the Gaza strip, a special World Economic Forum briefing has been organised in a bid to push for peace between Israel and Palestine. Israel is on the brink of invading Rafah, and hostages taken during the October 7, 2023 attacks on Israel have also not returned home yet, with Israelis taking to the streets of several cities and protesting against the Benjamin Netanyahu-led government. Palestine's President Mahmoud Abbas along with several international leaders is attending this meeting. Leaders will discuss at length the ongoing crisis in West Asia and urge for Israel to stop its offensive in the strip.

Speakers in this session:
- Sigrid Kaag, Senior Humanitarian and Reconstruction Coordinator for Gaza, United Nations
- Samer S. Khoury, Chairman, Consolidated Contractors Company (CCC)
- Mostafa Madbouli, Prime Minister of Egypt
- Mirek Dusek, Managing Director, World Economic Forum Geneva
- Bisher Hani Al Khasawneh, Prime Minister of Jordan
