The massive fire at the Ramses Exchange building in downtown Cairo has highlighted several other simultaneous fires in Egypt, prompting some to warn against a “conspiracy” targeting the country, RT reported.
Media personality and parliamentarian Mostafa Bakry commented on these incidents, wondering, “Is all this coincidence? Why now? This is just a question, and we await the answer, as it will reveal what is happening and its purpose.”
During his show “Haqa’ek wa Asrar” (Facts and Secrets) on the privately-owned Sada al-Balad channel on Friday, Bakry warned that a war has begun against Egypt and against President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi,” referring to attempts to “increase internal tension and undermine national unity.”
Massive fires cripple communications
A massive fire broke out on Monday evening which lasted nearly 20 hours at the Ramses telephone exchange building in Cairo, one of the largest communications centers in Egypt.
The fire led to a partial interruption of internet, landline, and telephone services, and disrupted financial services such as ATMs and electronic payment.
Flight services and banking transactions were also impacted.
The fire once again erupted on Friday evening in the back building of the exchange, but Civil Defense was able to quickly control the blaze, which was sparked by “heat spots” remaining from the initial fire.
Several other fires, some large, broke out on Friday in several areas in Giza, Alexandria, and Cairo.
A massive blaze engulfed a detergent factory in Badr City. In Alexandria, a fire broke out at a famous hotel on the Corniche Road.
A major fire broke out at the Dubai Mall in Sheikh Zayed City, Giza Governorate, reducing the building to ashes.
A venomous plot?
Bakry also noted that security and agricultural authorities foiled a “sabotage plot” last week, which involved an attempted smuggling of rare, dangerous and highly venomous animals through the Cairo Airport.
“Forty scorpions from the forests of Vietnam, known for their high toxicity and rapid reproduction, were seized, as were five yellow scorpions from Brazil, one of the most dangerous venomous species, and giant snakes, including the spitting cobra, which poses a threat to wildlife and pets,” he said.
He continued, questioning, “Why did the foreigner bring them with him, and what was the purpose of placing them in a specific location?!”
