Egypt reopened airspace for flights to and from Qatar on January 12, 2021.
This move comes shortly after the historic GCC Summit that took place in Saudi Arabia earlier this month.
Last week, leaders of the Gulf States came together at the 41st session of the Supreme Council of the Co-operation Council for the Arab States of the Gulf (GCC), held in Al-Ula Governorate in Saudi Arabia.
Under the Al-Ula Declaration, the countries agreed to restore relations and pledged to enhance cooperation for the stability and prosperity of the Gulf region.
The agreement between the leaders signals a new phase of unity, brotherhood, and solidarity in the GCC.
