Al-Islah Calls for Delay on Electricity Price Hike
The Egyptian government has approved an increase in electricity prices by an average of 12%, which will exacerbate the economic burdens on Egyptian households, especially given the challenging economic conditions. Some parliamentarians, notably the Deputy Chairman of the Agriculture and Irrigation Committee, have called for delaying the implementation of the increase, highlighting its negative impact on living standards and production costs.

They emphasized that solutions should focus on improving energy management rather than cutting subsidies, and stressed the importance of assessing the economic and social impact of the decision.
