World's Largest Military Headquarters Inaugurated in Egypt

Egypt inaugurated its new military headquarters, described by experts as the largest of its kind globally, covering approximately 90 square kilometers—comparable in size to Lisbon, Portugal. The complex, named 'Octagon,' consists of eight central buildings shaped like octagons and is located in Egypt's new administrative capital in the desert east of Cairo. President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi, who appeared publicly in military uniform for the first time in over ten years, called the facility a symbol of national determination. The project cost around 50 billion euros, adding to Egypt's significant foreign debt of 143 billion euros. Sisi came to power in a military coup in 2013.
