Egyptian MP Seeks Government Answers Over Stray Dog Complaints

Egyptian MP Irene Saeed has submitted a parliamentary briefing request over mounting complaints about stray dogs in streets, public squares and residential neighbourhoods.

The request is addressed to the prime minister, the agriculture minister, the minister of local development and environment, and the health minister.

Saeed raised concerns about dogs gathering near schools, hospitals and public facilities, bringing the issue of their presence in heavily used areas before parliament.

The move places the complaints before officials whose portfolios cover public health, local administration and animal management, seeking government accountability for the issue.

The information provided does not detail specific measures proposed in the request or any response from the officials addressed.
