Egypt Water Minister on Flood Defenses
The article by the Minister of Water Resources and Irrigation focused on the efforts of the Egyptian government in implementing 1,650 facilities to protect areas from the dangers of floods, especially in the provinces of North and South Sinai, the Red Sea, Upper Egypt, and Mersa Matruh. These projects aim to safeguard citizens and facilities from destruction caused by floods, as well as to utilize the collected water for drinking, agriculture, and replenishing underground reservoirs. The article also highlighted the importance of protecting the northern coasts from rising sea levels and climate change, showcasing coastal development works and the risks of retreat if measures are not taken. Estimates indicate that some areas of the Nile Delta could be submerged if protection efforts continue to be neglected. The Ministry's ongoing endeavors include securing financial resources and executing projects to reduce climate-related risks to coastal and agricultural zones, emphasizing the importance of continuing to protect facilities and lands from the effects of rising sea levels.
