CAIRO - 11 October 2023: A report by the Egyptian Center for Thought and Strategic Studies revealed that the goal of the Egyptian approach to the security of its northern borders was development, after the end of the terrorist threat in North Sinai. Development and reconstruction have become the first line of defense for this region, through the implementation of an expanded development plan that addresses the developmental deficiencies that have taken root in most areas of Sinai. The state chose the most difficult option, which is to get rid of terrorism and launch the development efforts in all parts of Sinai, “the land of turquoise," both in parallel. The starting point for the comprehensive plan for the development of Sinai was through Presidential Decree No. This is in addition to the establishment of 2,794 Bedouin homes in several areas of North Sinai, and the development of unsafe areas in South Sinai, through the establishment of development clusters provided with integrated services.
