Egyptian foreign minister's India visit called off after US bombs Iran's nuclear sites

Egyptian foreign Minister Badr Abdelatty's two-day visit to India beginning Monday has been called off in view of the escalating tension in the Middle-East following the US's bombing of three major nuclear sites in Iran.

Badr was scheduled to hold wide-ranging talks with External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar and Commerce Minister Piyush Goyal on Monday.

The visit of the foreign minister of Egypt has been postponed, said an official.
