Egypt's prosecutor has detained two Arab-Israeli tourists accused of assaulting three hotel employees in Taba, following a violent altercation that left one Egyptian worker seriously injured. The incident reportedly began when the tourists demanded access to services they had not paid for and escalated after one of them verbally insulted a hotel staff member. Witnesses and security footage indicated that the tourists were the aggressors, leading to charges of assault and destruction against them. The situation has intensified public outrage in Egypt, reflecting ongoing tensions related to the Israel-Gaza conflict that has surged since October 2023. The incident adds to a troubling pattern of violence against Israelis in Egypt, amid calls for accountability from the Egyptian public. The detained tourists will remain in custody for four days while investigations proceed.
