The state of emergency, which was declared in 2017 following a large-scale terror attack and had been extended by presidential decree in three month increments ever since, will not be extended for a further three months as had been customary, the president said. The latest three-month period ended over the weekend. The story is getting play in the foreign press, with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.reuters.com\/world\/middle-east\/egypts-president-sisi-ends-state-emergency-first-time-years-2021-10-25\/\">Reuters<\/a>, the <a href=\"https:\/\/apnews.com\/article\/middle-east-africa-egypt-bombings-80b2eadf00af6769cb044e26c38d8c83\">Associated Press<\/a>, the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2021\/10\/25\/world\/middleeast\/egypt-sisi-state-emergency.html\">New York Times<\/a>, and Russia's <a href=\"https:\/\/sputniknews.com\/20211025\/egypts-el-sisi-ends-state-of-emergency-for-first-time-in-four-years-1090201046.html\">Sputnik<\/a> among those taking note.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Background: <\/strong>The state of emergency was announced <a href=\"https:\/\/enterprise.press\/stories\/2017\/04\/10\/twin-church-attacks-leave-47-dead-126-injured-in-tanta-alexandria\/\">in April 2017<\/a> after terrorist attacks at the time in Alexandria and Tanta that killed dozens of Coptic Christians. It allowed warrantless arrests, gave security forces the right to detain suspects without evidence, and directed authorities to speed up the prosecution of suspects, as well as established special and emergency courts. El Sisi had previously promised that emergency rule would not be extended indefinitely, as was the case during the Mubarak era.<\/p>\n<p><strong>When it was first imposed, the decision triggered some push-back from foreign media outlets<\/strong>, with many <a href=\"https:\/\/enterprise.press\/stories\/2017\/04\/12\/emergency-law-is-topping-headlines-in-international-media\/\">at the time<\/a> angling in on how a state of emergency erodes freedoms.
