Army Warns Citizens Against Allowing Unidentified People to Access Rooftops

Egypt’s Armed Forces warned citizens against allowing unknown people to mount rooftops of buildings, urging everyone to exercise caution.

Military spokesman Colonel Ahmed Mohamed Ali urged residents’ unions to take all necessary measures to firmly close doors leading to their rooftops and prevent any unknown person from accessing them.

The Armed Forces detected attempts by unidentified people, who claim to belong to either the armed forces or the police, to mount some rooftops of buildings in different areas in Cairo and other cities, the spokesman said in a post on his Facebook page.

Any such attempt must be immediately reported to the armed forces or the police via hotlines dedicated to these services, he added.

The identity of anyone who attempts to access rooftops must be checked, Ali stated.
