Turkish President Tayyip Erdogan is in Egypt on his first visit since 2012 to meet President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi, taking a big step toward rebuilding ties between the regional powers, Reuters reports.

Erdogan has said discussions would focus on Israel’s Gaza offensive. The leaders, whose relations frayed over Egypt’s 2013 military coup and its fallout for the Muslim Brotherhood, are set to hold a press conference later.

The visit caps diplomatic efforts in recent years to thaw the nations’ frosty relations. They mutually appointed ambassadors last year, and this month Turkiye said it would provide Egypt with armed drones.
