Earthquake in Egypt felt in the Levant

An earthquake measuring 5.6 on the Richter scale struck Cairo, and it was felt by residents of Palestine, Jordan, Lebanon, and Cyprus. The quake occurred 38 kilometers from Suez at 3:01 AM local time, with no immediate reports of casualties or damages. The European-Mediterranean Center estimated that approximately 66 million people felt the tremor and warned of the possibility of aftershocks in the coming hours and days, as Egyptian authorities activated their emergency plan and advised citizens to avoid old buildings. Egypt is naturally prone to seismic activity due to its geographical features, especially in the Gulf of Aqaba region and north of the Red Sea.
