European and Arab diplomats are arriving in Paris in a bid to relaunch peace talks between Israel and Palestine. Now let's go live to the scene.

The meeting gathers representatives from 25 countries and organizations, including the US, Russia, the European Union, the Arab League, the UN Security Council. The meeting, however, will not include Israel or Palestine. Diplomats say the meeting will put together the economic incentives and other guarantees that various countries have offered in previous years, to create an agenda for an autumn peace conference this year. This comes after US efforts to broker a two-state deal collapsed in April 2014.

The Palestinians and Israelis have fundamental differences, making this decades-long conflict a tough one to iron out. Palestinians say the Israeli settlement expansion denies them a viable state they seek in the occupied West Bank, the Gaza Strip and a capital in Arab East Jerusalem.

Israel has demanded tighter security measures from the Palestinians, and a crackdown on militants who have attacked or threatened the safety of Israelis.
