Dr. Maryam bint Ali bin Nasser Al-Misnad<\/strong>, Minister of State for International Cooperation, <strong>H.E. Dr. Maya Morsi<\/strong>, Egypt\u2019s Minister of Social Solidarity, <strong>Yousef bin Ahmed Al-Kuwari<\/strong>, CEO of Qatar Charity, <strong>Amb.

The aid has now reached Egyptian territory in preparation for entry into Gaza. This cooperation reflects the deep fraternal ties between our two countries and our shared humanitarian responsibility toward the Palestinian people.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Dr. Al-Misnad also commended the <strong>Sharm El-Sheikh Peace Summit<\/strong> for its positive outcomes in alleviating Gaza\u2019s suffering, expressing hope that it will pave the way for future consensus leading to a comprehensive and just resolution to the Palestinian issue \u2014 one that ensures the establishment of an independent Palestinian state along the 1967 borders with East Jerusalem as its capital.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">For her part, <strong>Dr. Maya Morsi<\/strong> stressed that this collaboration embodies the unity of Egyptian and Qatari positions in confronting the humanitarian catastrophe in Gaza. She praised the joint relief and reconstruction efforts, particularly the <strong>Gaza Reconstruction Committee<\/strong>, which began clearing debris and reopening roads last week to ensure the rapid and safe delivery of aid.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The <strong>Qatari Embassy in Cairo<\/strong> further underscored that statistics fail to capture the true scale of Gaza\u2019s suffering, citing Palestinian Ministry of Health data indicating the <strong>death of 157 children due to malnutrition<\/strong> \u2014 a figure that calls for continued and intensified Arab humanitarian action.<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-41400 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.aldiplomasy.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Screenshot_2025-10-20-18-09-59-94_1c337646f29875672b5a61192b9010f9.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1079\" height=\"826\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.aldiplomasy.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Screenshot_2025-10-20-18-09-59-94_1c337646f29875672b5a61192b9010f9.jpg 1079w, https:\/\/www.aldiplomasy.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Screenshot_2025-10-20-18-09-59-94_1c337646f29875672b5a61192b9010f9-300x230.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.aldiplomasy.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Screenshot_2025-10-20-18-09-59-94_1c337646f29875672b5a61192b9010f9-1024x784.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.aldiplomasy.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Screenshot_2025-10-20-18-09-59-94_1c337646f29875672b5a61192b9010f9-150x115.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.aldiplomasy.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Screenshot_2025-10-20-18-09-59-94_1c337646f29875672b5a61192b9010f9-768x588.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1079px) 100vw, 1079px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The Embassy concluded by reaffirming that <strong>Qatari\u2013Egyptian cooperation is not momentary but a continuation of deeply rooted bilateral relations<\/strong> characterized by understanding and shared purpose.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>\u201cTogether, we build bridges of mercy across the rivers of pain.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ashraf AboArafe &nbsp; In a moving display of Arab solidarity, the Embassy of the State of Qatar reaffirmed Doha\u2019s commitment to cooperate with Egypt in meeting the urgent humanitarian needs of the people of Gaza.
