Beheira residents use contaminated sewage for prayers
Since more than four years ago, Beheira Governorate has been exposed to images of citizens bathing in sewage water in Edko city, under the belief that it helps treat certain skin diseases. This was in June 2022, when a video circulated showing the use of water collected in an unofficial sewer well, which was addressed by the relevant authorities through site closures and awareness campaigns to warn against the dangers of using sewage water containing viruses and bacteria that could cause serious illnesses. Officials affirmed that water from mosques is discharged through the official sewage network, and that the rumors about seeking blessings from wastewater have no religious or scientific basis.
