CAIRO, March 18 (Xinhua) -- Egyptian President Abdel-Fattah al-Sisi and Oman's Sultan Haitham bin Tariq Al Said on Wednesday discussed the efforts aiming at de-escalating tensions and restoring regional stability, according to an Egyptian Presidency statement.

In a phone call, Sisi reviewed Egypt's regional and international endeavors to de-escalate tensions and end the war at the earliest possible time. He also voiced support for the Omani mediation efforts between the U.S. and Iranian sides.

Condemning the Iranian attacks against Arab states, the Egyptian president stressed that Egypt and the Gulf states share a common destiny and unified national security, highlighting the importance of enhancing joint action to overcome the grave regional challenges and developments.

The Omani Sultan expressed appreciation for Egypt's unwavering support for the stability and sovereignty of the Gulf states.

The two leaders agreed to maintain consultations and coordination to strengthen regional de-escalation efforts.

Also on Wednesday, Egyptian Foreign Minister Badr Abdelatty held a phone call with his Kuwaiti counterpart, Jarrah Jaber Al-Ahmad Al-Sabah, on the developments in Kuwait in light of the current regional tensions, the Egyptian Foreign Ministry said in a statement.

During the call, Abdelatty reiterated Egypt's condemnation of the attacks from Iran, saying that they constitute a blatant violation of Kuwait's sovereignty and a clear breach of international law and the principles of good neighborliness.

The diplomatic efforts came amid heightened tensions following joint U.S.-Israeli strikes on Iran starting on Feb. 28, to which Iran and its regional allies responded with attacks on Israeli and U.S. interests across the Middle East.
