Egypt’s President Abdel Fattah El Sisi gave directives to the government to increase the value of compensations granted to the victims of the Ashmoun road accident in Menoufia governorate, allocating additional EGP 100,000 for each fatality and EGP 25,000 for each injured person, alongside the compensations already approved by the ministries of labor and social solidarity.
Sisi also instructed the government to intensify efforts to maintain and repair roads, with a specific focus on the Regional Ring Road.
He asserted the urgent need to complete ongoing repairs, ensure clear warning signs in areas under maintenance, and make route alterations visibly marked to prevent accidents.
Sisi further stressed the immediate removal of hazards that could contribute to accidents on these roads, along with strict speed monitoring.
