Interruption to tourism at Abu Simbel
Youm7
Not a very clear translation, but it appears that thre have been problems at Abu Simbel which have interrupted normal tourism.
General Director of the Temple of Abu Simbel Ahmed Saleh said the tourism movement to the temple returned to normal after two days of discomfiture today November 15.
It should be mentioned the governorate of Aswan witnessed trouble the past few days. The temple therefore did not receive any tourists before 4:00 P.M. during that time.
