A 5.5-magnitude earthquake was recorded east of Egypt during the early hours of Monday morning, felt by residents across a broad area including Cairo and Arish. The quake struck at 3:00 AM local time, approximately 40 kilometers north of Suez City, and lasted for more than 15 seconds. The National Institute for Astronomical and Geophysical Research raised the earthquake’s estimated strength from 5.2 to 5.5, while the U.S. Seismic Survey Center confirmed its intensity at 5.0. Despite panic and the activation of the emergency health plan, no reports of human or material damages have been received. The most devastating earthquake in Egypt was the one that occurred in 1992 with a magnitude of 5.8, which resulted in over 540 deaths.
