Egypt faces debate over refugee donation spending
The allocation of donation funds from civil society organizations for the treatment of needy Egyptians and foreigners in Egypt is sparking controversy. Bahiya Hospital clarified that it does not treat non-Egyptian women through donations; instead, treatment for foreigners is provided through protocols with other entities, while donations are exclusively directed to support needy Egyptian women. The presence of over 10 million foreigners in Egypt, costing more than $10 billion annually, is a source of concern. There have also been criticisms of some campaigns refusing to treat refugees, similar to Egyptians, despite international guarantees of everyone's right to healthcare. The organizations emphasize that donation funds are narrowly aimed at Egyptians and call for transparency regarding expenditure sources to avoid misinterpretations and targeted campaigns. They also stress the importance of international support for refugees to alleviate the burden on the state.
