"During the conversation, a sharp exacerbation of the situation around the Gaza Strip, fraught with a relapse into violent confrontation between the Israelis and the Palestinians with serious destruction and civilian casualties, was discussed," the statement said.
As noted, in this context, the need was emphasized to refrain from aggressive rhetoric and take appropriate measures in the interests of preventing the further development of the situation under a negative scenario.
Earlier it was reported that the Israeli army began to launch rocket attacks on the positions of Hamas in the Gaza Strip.
