Syrian President Ahmed Al-Sharaa arrived in the Egyptian capital, Cairo, on Tuesday to attend an emergency Arab summit on the Gaza Strip, the state news agency SANA reported.

The visit is the first by Sharaa to Egypt since he was declared president in late January following the overthrow of the Bashar al-Assad regime.

Sharaa will join other Arab leaders on Tuesday to formulate a unified Arab stance on the Palestinian issue and present an Arab counterproposal to US plans for the displacement of Gaza's population.
