Jeddah, The Gulf Observer: His Royal Highness Prince Mohammed bin Salman bin Abdulaziz Al Saud, Saudi Crown Prince and Prime Minister, held talks with President Abdel Fattah El-Sisi of Egypt in Jeddah to discuss evolving regional developments, with a particular focus on the repercussions of ongoing military escalation in the Middle East.

President El-Sisi strongly condemned these attacks and reaffirmed Egypt’s full support and solidarity with Saudi Arabia in the face of any threats to its sovereignty and security.

The meeting reflects continued coordination between Riyadh and Cairo on key regional issues, emphasizing the importance of joint efforts to maintain stability and address emerging security challenges in the Middle East.
