Egyptians pray over sewage water
A video clip circulated showing Egyptian citizens in Beheira Governorate engaging in rituals using wastewater from a sewer well, which sparked widespread controversy on social media. The well is located near Edko cemeteries, and water analyses confirmed that it is contaminated with sewage leakage and cemetery effluents. It has no medicinal properties, and health authorities have warned about the dangers of using it, including risks of kidney, liver, and skin diseases. The well was closed and drained years ago to contain these hazards, but the video has recently been re-shared, prompting anger and criticism over superstitions related to the water.
