CAIRO, Sept 11 (Aswat Masriya) An American delegation of several officials arrived in Cairo on Thursday to prepare for a visit by U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry, reported the state-owned news agency MENA.  

Kerry, the highest-ranking U.S. official to visit Egypt, was in Cairo last July to discuss the situation in Gaza and a ceasefire initiative proposed by Egypt. 

This will be Kerry's third visit to Egypt since President Abdel fattah al-Sisi, the former army chief, was inaugurated president.
