Egypt has announced the convening of an Arab summit on March 4, focused on providing support to Palestine and addressing the reconstruction of Gaza.
This meeting, initially scheduled for February 27, was postponed to allow for better logistical and substantive preparation, according to the Egyptian Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
The decision to delay the summit was made in coordination with Bahrain, the current president of the Arab League, and following consultations with other Arab states.
