CAIRO- Mrs Entissar El Sisi, spouse of President Abdel Fattah El Sisi, Monday greeted Egyptians on Sham el Nessim spring festival.
“I greet the Egyptian people on Sham el Nessim. Many happy returns to the Egyptian people on the occasion of celebrating Sham el Nessim,” Egypt’s
First Lady said in a post on her official account on social media websites.
Sham el Nassim is a festival which dates back to Pharaonic times and used to herald the coming of the spring floods. In modern times, Sham el Nessim, which translates to “smelling the breeze,” follows the Coptic Orthodox Easter Sunday.
