Regarding the Israeli genocide in Gaza, both countries stressed the necessity of an immediate and permanent ceasefire, the release of Israeli captives and Palestinian prisoners, and the uninterrupted flow of humanitarian and medical aid into the entirety of the Gaza Strip, "in the sphere of confronting the fragrant Israeli violations of international law and international humanitarian law," which include targeting civilians and civilian infrastructure in Gaza for the past 11 months. 

Ankara and Cairo further expressed their readiness for bilateral cooperation in support of efforts to restore the humanitarian situation in Gaza and called for strong solidarity in the rebuilding of Gaza and urgently achieving peace in the region to prevent the escalation of tensions. 

Moreover, Turkey and Egypt expressed deep concerns regarding "Israel's" unlawful practices in the occupied West Bank, including East al-Quds. 

During the meeting, both countries called on the international community to "support the Palestinian National Authority in fulfilling its duties and responsibilities towards the Palestinian people in the West Bank, as well as Gaza and East al-Quds, and to support efforts to confront and remove illegal Israeli restrictions, policies, and practices."

The two sides also discussed several issues and developments in the region, including supporting Iraq's sovereignty and stability, supporting the political process led by the Libyans under the auspices of the United Nations, achieving peace, security, and stability in the Horn of Africa region, finding solutions to the ongoing conflict in Sudan and the resulting humanitarian crisis, as well as finding a permanent and comprehensive solution to the conflict in Syria, in addition to emphasizing the importance of combating terrorism in all its forms and manifestations.
