Israel's Levy in Egypt

Israeli Foreign Minister David Levy is in Egypt on August 4 for talks on ending a Middle East "peacemaking" crisis that deepened with a suicide bombing in street market in Jerusalem.

Ministry spokesman Avivv Shir said that Levy was invited by his Egyptian counterpart Amr Moussa and would apparently meet the Egyptian president.

They would discuss Middle East peacemaking, "especially with the attack and all that has to do with it, it increases the need to speak," Shir said.
