Egypt Daily News – The Egyptian Public Prosecution has taken action against two Israeli suspects involved in the assault of three hotel employees in Taba, resulting in murder and acts of vandalism.
The incident, which occurred last Friday, stemmed from a dispute regarding payment and the right to consume alcoholic beverages among the tourists and their families, as per the residency regulations.
Following the brawl, the prosecution received reports and quickly conducted an investigation, including examining the victims’ injuries—ranging from skull fractures to lacerations—and questioning witnesses. Surveillance footage reviewed during the investigation confirmed the involvement of the two Israeli defendants in the violent altercation and the damage to property within the hotel.
One hotel employee was severely injured and died while being transferred from the Taba hospital to the Sharm El Sheikh hospital.
As a result of these findings, the suspects have been imprisoned pending further investigation into the crimes committed, including murder, the instilling of fear among citizens and acts of vandalism.
The situation highlights ongoing tensions and incidents involving Israeli tourists in the region, and the Egyptian authorities are continuing their inquiries into the matter.
