Egypt has formed a crisis committee to closely monitor the escalating military conflict between Iran and Israel, according to Alqahera News.
The move comes amid growing regional tensions following a dramatic surge in hostilities between the two longtime adversaries, raising fears of a wider conflict that could impact the broader Middle East.
The committee, comprising senior officials from key ministries and security agencies, is tasked with assessing the potential political, economic, and security repercussions of the ongoing military operations. It will also coordinate contingency plans to ensure Egypt's national security and the safety of its citizens at home and abroad.
Egypt, which has historically played a mediating role in regional crises, has yet to issue an official statement on the latest developments. However, diplomatic sources suggest that Cairo is actively engaging with international partners in an effort to de-escalate the situation.
The crisis committee is expected to remain in continuous session as the situation unfolds.
