"We are celebrating these days on the occasion of the 65th anniversary of the Egyptian guides taking over the Maritime Navigation Department in the Suez Canal," Sisi tweeted.

He added that "the occasion represented a historic achievement in the record of Egyptian victories, and an epic for the victory of the Egyptian will in the management of navigation in the Canal."

"Thus, I highly appreciate and am proud of the Suez Canal guides who did not give up their duty for a moment under the most difficult conditions since its nationalization in 1956 till this day."

Sisi stressed that the Egyptian guides "contributed with their strenuous efforts to preserve the international reputation of the Suez Canal as the most important navigational artery in the world."
