President Abdel Fattah El Sisi expressed gratitude to all Egyptian people and government for dealing with the bad and unstable weather the country has not experienced since 1994.
“The Egyptians, people and government, have demonstrated, over the past hours, their strong ability and nobility in dealing with the weather disturbances that swept the country,” Sisi posted on his official Facebook account late Friday.
Egypt has witnessed unstable and unprecedented weather conditions that haven’t happened for more than 35 years.
Sisi added that the state, with its executive apparatus and security institutions, has tackled a very complex climatic conditions not familiar to our country.
“I thank all the officials and inpiduals whose responsibility forced them to monitor the situation and contain its severe effects, in the field, from the heart of the event,” he noted.
The Egyptian president stated that he was proud of the Egyptian society, whose members have shown a high spirit of cooperation, loyalty and interdependence, adding that “We are together, hand in hand… stronger than anything.”
“I also extend my sincere condolences and sympathy to the families of the victims and all wishes for a speedy recovery for the injured,” Sisi said.
Earlier this day, Egyptian Prime Minister Mustafa Madbouli announced that about 20 person passed away across Egypt due to the bad weather, stressing that Egypt had not witnessed such unstable weather conditions for nearly 35 or 40 years.
Madbouli thanked all workers in various state apparatuses for the great effort in dealing with these exceptional climatic conditions, and for the armed forces in all their apparatuses, for their great effort in the various governorates, and for leaving all machines and equipment to be used freely by the state concerned authorities, and for the Egyptian police for their great efforts and continuous presence in the streets.
