Egyptian Parliament delays Saudi aid vote
The Egyptian House of Representatives suspended its sessions today to continue voting on President Abdel Fattah El-Sisi's request to authorize the armed forces to take any measures requested by Saudi Arabia to defend its security and sovereignty. This came after a confidential session held by the council, during which Sisi reaffirmed Egypt's readiness to support Saudi Arabia and protect the security of the Gulf states. Such decisions require the approval of two-thirds of the House members, according to Article 130 of the internal regulations and Article 152 of the constitution. These measures are part of the constitutional procedures related to deploying the armed forces outside Egypt. Voting will resume in an upcoming session scheduled for October 26.
