Egypt welcomed by crowds after World Cup run
Supporters gathered along the route of an open‑top bus parade, waving Egyptian and Palestinian flags as a display of solidarity with Gaza. The procession, featuring the group known as the Pharaohs, moved through the city center while onlookers held the flags aloft, creating a vivid visual of regional support for the besieged enclave.
Organizers said the demonstration was intended to highlight humanitarian concerns amid the ongoing conflict in Gaza, and participants used the occasion of the Pharaohs’ public appearance to draw attention to the situation. Authorities reported that the event proceeded without incident, and police presence ensured that the crowd remained orderly as the bus traveled its designated path.
The flag‑bearing display underscores the continued public interest in the Gaza crisis within Egypt, reflecting broader regional sentiments while the conflict remains unresolved.
