Prime Minister: 11 pm Closing Time for Shops, Restaurants and Malls Extended From Tomorrow Until 27 April

Dr. Mostafa Madbouly, Prime Minister, has announced the decision to extend the application of the 11 pm closing time for shops, restaurants and malls until the end of the exceptional period on 27 April, having been scheduled to apply from tomorrow, Friday 10 April, until Monday 13 April coinciding with the Sham El-Nessim holidays, noting that all tourist and archaeological areas are exempt from the closing times.

Madbouly explained during the weekly press conference following today's Cabinet meeting that this decision came as a positive result of the ceasefire announced yesterday between the US and Iranian sides, which led to a relative decline in energy prices, stressing that regional developments are being followed continuously and decisions suited to each stage are being taken, according to the official page of the Egyptian Cabinet on Facebook.
