Alexandria governor Hani al-Messiry resigns after the “Bride of the Mediterranean” is flooded; the prime minister accepts the resignation.

Alexandria Governor Hani al-Messiry submitted his resignation today, Sunday, and Prime Minister Engineer Sherif Ismail accepted it after rainwater flooded the governorate’s streets.

Most governorates experienced bad weather, with precipitation reaching snow in some areas. Alexandria was hardest hit by flooding, and six people were electrocuted after an electrical cable fell.
