Turkish President Tayyip Erdogan will visit Egypt next month in a bid to restore ties after more than a decade of fractured relations, Bloomberg News reports, citing Turkish officials familiar with the matter.

Talks between Erdogan and Egyptian President Abdel Fattah el-Sissi are expected to focus on aid shipments for Palestinians in Gaza and steps that could be taken to end the war, the report adds.
