Egyptian Air Force F-16 fighter jets escorted US President Donald Trump's plane as it entered Egyptian airspace.
This came within the framework of the protocol and security measures followed when receiving heads of friendly states, and to emphasize the high level of readiness of the Egyptian Armed Forces.
President Trump arrived in Sharm el-Sheikh to participate in the Sharm el-Sheikh Peace Summit, co-chaired by President Abdel Fattah el-Sisi and the US President, with the participation of a large number of world leaders. The summit will discuss ways to end the war in Gaza and advance peace and stability efforts in the Middle East.
The sight of Egyptian fighter jets escorting the US presidential plane is a message that reflects the depth of relations between Cairo and Washington and the close coordination between the two sides in various fields, especially in light of the political and diplomatic momentum witnessed by the upcoming international summit.
