Source: The New Egyptian Government to Take Oath Tomorrow

Egyptian media outlets have reported that the new Egyptian government will take the constitutional oath tomorrow, Wednesday, before President Abdel Fattah El-Sisi. The "Extra News" television channel, in an urgent report, cited a government source as saying that the swearing-in ceremony for the new cabinet will take place at the presidential headquarters in Heliopolis. The channel confirmed speculations published by several news sites and Egyptian media over the past two days that the cabinet reshuffle will involve a large number of portfolios. Public opinion in Egypt was surprised when Dr. Mostafa Madbouly's government submitted its resignation in early June, with Sisi assigning Madbouly to form a new government while the previous cabinet continued to manage affairs until the new formation was completed. There were speculations that the new government would be announced before or shortly after the upcoming Eid al-Adha, but the process took longer than observers had anticipated.
