Saudi King Salman bin Abdulaziz's upcoming visit of Cairo comes at a very critical phase due to the ongoing major events in the region, said.

The king's visit and his meeting with Egyptian President Abdel Fattah El Sisi will give a boost to already-close bilateral relations, the Saudi envoy told MENA Monday.

Speaking of the convoluted regional events, he said "Operation Decisive Storm" succeeded in confronting foreign influence in the Arab region.
