Incident Details
Protests are expected across Egypt on November 11, during the UN’s COP27 Climate Summit. Activists will be opposing the alleged human rights abuses by the government. Officials have been restricting anti-government protests for weeks; dozens of people have been arrested in this time. The coming protests will be considered illegal gatherings. Clashes between security forces and protesters are therefore likely.
Traveler Safety
Travelers are advised to avoid all protests and leave any area that shows signs of unrest or violence. Travelers should maintain enhanced awareness during transit and plan travel routes in advance. Monitor the incident via local sources.
