The decision follows high-level consultations between Egypt and other Arab nations, including Palestine, which requested the summit.
Egypt has also coordinated with Bahrain, the current chair of the Arab League (AL) summit, and the AL secretariat, according to the ministry's statement.
The announcement comes amid controversy over recent remarks by U.S. President Donald Trump, who suggested relocating Palestinians from Gaza to neighboring countries, including Egypt and Jordan. The proposal has been widely rejected by regional and international actors.
During a joint press conference in Washington with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, Trump stated that the U.S. planned to take control of Gaza and redevelop it after relocating its Palestinian residents.
Both Egypt and Jordan have previously dismissed similar proposals, firmly opposing any forced displacement of Palestinians.
