Pleasure to meet @NaguibSawiris today. The Sawiris family has been generously supporting hundreds of thousands of refugees in Egypt over the years. I look forward to further working with the Sawiris family to further support & advance the refugee cause.

With the surge in the number of ppl fleeing #Sudan, @UNHCREgypt & @UNEgypt are together providing food, water & medical assistance through ERC at the borders. Egypt already hosts many refugees; let's all work together to ensure that ppl in need of int. protection can access it.

Today at a press briefing in Cairo, @FilippoGrandi made two appeals: 1️⃣ funding to be provided by the international donor community 2️⃣ the openness and generosity of #Egypt in receiving and hosting refugees to remain as Egypt sets an example to other countries

Today, we welcomed @FilipoGrandi in #Egypt. The visit comes at a time when #Egypt has opened its borders to more than 160K of people forced to flee #Sudan. More resources are needed to support refugees, host community members and the government of Egypt.
