As noted, the agreement between Saudi Arabia and Egypt was signed in 2016.

Thus, in the treaty Cairo recognized the islands of Tiran and Sanafir. It is also known that they came under the control of Egypt only in 1950, belonging to Riyadh.

In turn, the Supreme Court of Egypt consistently rejected the transfer of territories.

Then the court noted that the government did not provide sufficient evidence in support of statements that the islands have always been the territory of Saudi Arabia.

Nevertheless, on June 21, the head of the Egyptian Supreme Court suspended execution of all previous court decisions on agreement.

"The islands are Saudi, but fall under the protection of Egypt," it was reported..

Recall, as previously reported, "URA-Inform", in Yemen, crashed a helicopter with the military of Saudi Arabia.
