The Sudanese Ministry of Irrigation has declared a red alert along the Nile in several states, with the water level in Khartoum exceeding 17 meters – exceeding the usual danger level of 16.5 meters.
Warnings have been issued to evacuate homes and move livestock to areas far from the Nile.
Concerns have grown about the aftermath of the flood and whether it will reach Egypt or not.
Will Egypt be impacted?
The Professor of Geology and Water Resources at Cairo University, Abbas Sharaqy said that Egypt will be completely safe, thanks to the High Dam’s ability to absorb any sudden increases in water flow.
He assured Al-Masry Al-Youm that Egypt will not be affected in any way, with no risks to agriculture, infrastructure, or human lives.
“The High Dam is capable of receiving up to one billion cubic meters of water per day without any problems, and we are prepared to deal with any incoming quantities. So far, these quantities do not pose any danger to us,” he explained.
Sharaky noted that the High Dam has saved Egypt in recent years, when the flow of water decreased. Whenever large or small quantities of water arrive, it will not pose a danger as the High Dam is capable of absorbing any change in water flow – even if the water is cut off for certain periods.
He added that Egypt will not be directly affected as the water will eventually arrive during the rainy season, and the High Dam is always ready to protect it from any emergency.
