02:01of the Israeli genocide.
02:03Yes, they came through our neighboring brotherly country, Egypt, and Egypt hosts so many of
02:11our injured Palestinians, but for Malaysia, as a first Asian country, to host injured
02:17Palestinians, to travel more than 16 hours to reach Malaysia, that words is not enough
02:24to say thank you, Malaysia.
02:25Abdel Fattah el-Sisi, Egyptian President
02:26I would like to thank Malaysia once more for hosting our Palestinian brothers.
