His Highness Dr Shaikh Sultan bin Mohammed Al Qasimi, Supreme Council Member and Ruler of Sharjah, has donated $2 million for restoration work and installation of equipment at Cairo University’s faculty of engineering building that was severely damaged by a fire during the dispersion of the sit-in at Al Nahda Square. This is one in a series of initiatives taken by Shaikh Sultan in support of Egypt and its people during the current crisis.
Shaikh Sultan also gave orders for building mosques in the villages in North Sinai town of Rafah. Each of the said mosques will be named after one of the 25 Egyptian soldiers who were killed in a terrorist attack Monday morning.
The Ruler of Sharjah also gave directives for building modern houses for the residents of eighteen slums in Giza City. Upon completion, the ownership of the new houses will be transferred to the residents of the run-down areas.
