CAIRO — Egyptian President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi declared yet another three-month extension of Egypt's state of emergency on Oct. 26.
Though under the constitution, a state of emergency is not to not be extended more than once, the recent decision marks the 10th time that the state of emergency has been renewed since April 10, 2017, when Sisi first declared it a day after two terrorist attacks targeted churches in Alexandria and Tanta, leaving 44 people dead.
