A pretty bland night on Egypt’s airwaves. The story of the night was the inauguration of phase two of a project to build 100k greenhouses on the Cairo-Alamein road. Construction and housing, and Mohab Mamish’s departure as Suez Canal boss also got some airtime.

El Sisi inaugurates phase two of “100k greenhouse project”: President Abdel Fattah El Sisi inaugurated 1.3k greenhouses built over a 10k feddan area as part of the second phase of a project in the Mohamed Naguib military base on the Cairo-Alamein road, Al Hayah Al Youm’s Lobna Assal reported (watch, runtime: 6:10). The “100k greenhouse project,” Assal says, is the largest of its kind in the Middle East, and is enough to provide food for 20 mn people. The project’s second phase is expected to yield 184k tonnes of state-produced vegetables a year, according to a report by Mubasher.

The president wants to personally ensure King Mariout landowners go legal: El Hekaya’s Amr Adib took note of El Sisi’s request during the inauguration to personally review and resolve case files regarding building code violations by landowners in an area known for second homes owned by the rich on the outskirts of Alexandria (watch, runtime: 5:27).

Housing prices also get some airtime: The Housing Ministry now has a comprehensive list of house prices in new urban areas, ranging from social housing to medium-level and distinctive medium housing, to lofty towers in New Alamein and the administrative capital, Assistant Housing Minister Walid Abbas told Hona Al Asema’s Reham Ibrahim in an interview (watch, runtime: 1:43).
