National Urban Harmony Chief: No quake impact notices
Engineer Mohamed Abu Sada, Head of the National Authority for Urban Coordination, confirmed that the earthquake with a magnitude of 5.6 on the Richter scale that residents of Cairo and some governorates felt did not affect the historic buildings registered under heritage preservation laws. The authority has not received any reports or indications of damage to heritage structures. Additionally, Cairo Governor Dr. Ibrahim Sabbour affirmed that there are no effects on the buildings with unique architectural features that are officially recorded, despite the fact that heritage buildings are constructed using load-bearing walls, which are more sensitive to earthquakes. The Institute of Astronomy Research explained that the earthquake occurred at 3 a.m. at a depth of 10 kilometers, with its epicenter 38 kilometers north of Suez, and was followed by insignificant aftershocks.
