Turkish foreign minister to lead Gaza talks in Washington with Muslim contact group

Turkey’s Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan is set to visit Washington on Friday with members of a "contact group" of Muslim nations to deliberate and focus on the war in Gaza, Turkey’s foreign ministry said on Thursday.

The contact group was established last month during a summit between the Arab League and the Organisation of Islamic Cooperation (OIC).

The group consists of representatives from Turkey, Jordan, Qatar, Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Indonesia, Nigeria, the Palestinian Authority, and the OIC.
