According to state-run news agency ...and if you can't believe the state-run news agency who can you believe?... MENA, the curfew runs from Tal Rafah in the eastern part of Sinai to the international border at Rafah, and from Halal Mountain until Ouga on the border. An announcement in the Official Gazette stated that the curfew runs from 7 pm until 6 am the following day, except in al-Arish city and on the international road, where it runs from 1 am to 5 am, or until further notice. The decision by Ismail comes just a few days after Egypt’s parliament approved an extension of a nationwide state of emergency for three months starting July 10. |
