President Abdel Fattah El-Sisi ratified a new law reorganizing the Future of Egypt Authority for Sustainable Development, establishing a new legal framework for the state body as it expands its role in major development, food security, and investment projects. Published in the Official Gazette on Monday, 27 July, Law No. 147 of 2026 grants the authority, also known as Mostaqbal Misr, administrative, financial, and technical independence and transfers its affiliation from the Ministry of Defense to the Presidency. The legislation sets out a transitional framework for the authority’s restructuring, including the transfer of assets, the continuation of existing agreements, and the establishment of a new governance structure. The authority will have up to one year to adjust its status under the new law, with the possibility of extensions by presidential decree. Under the law, lands previously transferred to the authority may be designated as sustainable development areas by presidential decree within three months.

Rumours and false claims spreading across Egyptian social media and news outlets surged by 113 percent in the first half of 2026 compared with the same period last year, according to a report released 15 July by the Cabinet Media Centre, as regional conflict and economic anxiety created fertile ground for viral falsehoods. The report, released by the government’s public communications and media monitoring office, shows that misinformation tied to regional developments accounted for 57.3 percent of all rumours monitored between January and June 2026, up from 21.1 percent in the first half of 2025. Officials attributed the spike largely to spillover from ongoing tensions in the Middle East, which have made Egyptians more anxious and more susceptible to unverified claims about everything from fuel supplies to their savings. The surge comes amidst a longer-term upward trend in which nationwide rumour rates had already climbed to 14.5 percent in 2025, up from 13.8 percent in 2024, with the fourth quarter alone accounting for nearly 40 percent of the year’s total misinformation. While rumours in 2025 focused largely on state development projects, the 2026 surge has been driven primarily by fearsContinue reading "Rumours in Egypt Nearly Double as Regional Turmoil Fuels Online Panic"
