This came shortly following the meeting of King Abdullah of Jordan and the US president in Washington.
According to the sources, Cairo has sent multiple responses in recent days to US President Donald Trump's proposed plan on Gaza.
They added that Egypt's stance on the Gaza file remains unchanged, emphasizing that Cairo has a ready response that has not been modified.
Egypt has submitted multiple responses to US President Donald Trump's plan regarding Gaza over the past few days while holding a firm stance against his plan involving the displacement of Palestinians from the strip, Egyptian sources told Al Arabiya TV channel.
Cairo remains steadfast in its position, with officials confirming that its stance on the issue has not changed, the sources added.
Egyptian officials have firmly rejected any proposal to allocate land for the relocation of Gaza residents, closing the door on discussions about resettling Palestinians outside their territory.
Egypt has also formally requested clarifications from Washington regarding Trump’s recent comments about potential sanctions which he claimed on Monday.
The sources added that Cairo has prepared two reconstruction plans for Gaza that do not involve the displacement of its residents.
The Egyptian sources reiterated their firm stance against any forced relocation of Palestinians outside of Gaza, emphasizing that the priority remains rebuilding within Gaza itself.
Recently, Egypt has actively rallied Arab, Islamic, and international support to firmly reject Trump’s proposal for the permanent displacement of Palestinians from their historic homeland, denying them the right to return.
Cairo has consistently reiterated its strong opposition to any plan aimed at liquidating the Palestinian cause through the forced displacement of Palestinians, even temporarily, emphasizing that it "will not be a party to such a plan."
In January, President Abdel-Fattah El-Sisi reaffirmed this stance, stating that Egypt "cannot participate in the injustice of displacing the Palestinian people."
Alongside the broader Arab and Islamic rejection of Trump's proposal, Egypt remains committed to working with regional and international partners to achieve a just and comprehensive peace, advocating for the establishment of an independent Palestinian state based on the 4 June 1967 borders, with Jerusalem as its capital.
Moreover, Cairo is set to host an emergency Arab summit on 27 February to address what it has described as the "serious" developments concerning the Palestinian cause.
This will be followed by a foreign ministerial-level meeting of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC), as agreed in principle between Egyptian Minister of Foreign Affairs Badr Abdelatty and several of his OIC counterparts.
Additionally, Egypt has pledged to mobilize its resources to support Gaza’s reconstruction efforts, reaffirming its commitment to working with regional and international partners to rebuild the strip.
After 15 months of devastating Israeli war in Gaza, the United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) reported in January that 92 percent of homes in the strip have been destroyed.
Previous UN estimates suggest that reconstruction could take more than 16 years.
