The Arab League says an emergency Arab summit scheduled for Wednesday at the Egyptian resort of Sharm el-Sheikh has been postponed, following the death of Saudi Arabia's King Fahd.
An Arab League official, Hisham Youssef, at the Red Sea resort told reporters that the postponement "is for a few days," and that consultations will soon begin to decide on a new date for the summit.
Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak last week called the summit to discuss the situation in Iraq, the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and terrorism.
