It was a relatively low-key evening on the airwaves last night, with Egypt’s ascent to the Arab Cup semis and a fatal car crash in Sheikh Zayed over the weekend leading coverage.

Egypt reached the Arab Cup semi-finals with a qualifying 3-1 victory against Jordan after a heated match. El Hekaya’s Amr Adib gave a shout out to the support of Egyptians in the audience at the stadium (watch, runtime: 00:36), while Kelma Akhira’s Lamees El Hadidi gave a nod to the Jordanian team’s efforts (watch, runtime: 2:00). Al Hayah Al Youm’s Lobna Assal also took note of the victory (watch, runtime: 00:46).

An individual suspected of having caused the fatal car crash in Sheikh Zayed that led to the deaths of four people has undergone illicit substance testing pending further investigation of the incident, Kelma Akhira (watch, runtime: 13:42) and El Hekaya (watch, runtime: 5:35) reported. Footage of the accident, captured through a security camera on the road, went viral on social media over the past several days.
