Other coverage worth noting in brief

Other coverage of Egypt in the international press worth a gander this morning:

  • Argentine football superstar Lionel Messi’s visit to Egypt this week made its way to international headlines last night, with coverage from Reuters (runtime 0:15) and the UK’s Daily Mail.
  • Another report on Koshary is making the rounds, this time by NPR’s Amy E Robertson. Her twist is that the dish is a “modern mystery in an ancient cuisine,” saying that “no one can say for sure where koshary came from, everyone has an opinion on where to eat it.” Management here at Enterprise has a thought on that last bit: Not in our office.
  • The Associated Press takes a look at youth activist and April 6 movement founder Ahmed Maher’s life after prison and the “grim routine” of nightly imprisonment at the police station from 6 pm to 6 am every day for the next three years.
