Representatives from Germany, France, Britain, Italy, Qatar, Jordan, Turkey, Saudi Arabia, Qatar and the UAE are expected to attend. British Prime Minister Keir Starmer confirmed that he will arrive in Sharm el-Sheikh, but Cairo has not yet published the final list of delegations.

According to Al-Araby Al-Jadeed, the PNA leadership did not receive an official invitation.
