Egyptian President Abdel-Fattah el-Sissi recently inaugurated the nation’s new, sprawling strategic command headquarters in what Cairo described as the largest complex of its kind in the Middle East.
“This massive facility transcends traditional military headquarters, serving as a miniature administrative and defense hub. It operates as an integrated center for crisis management and smart command,” the country’s state information service said in a statement.

The 22,000 acre (34 square mile) complex is located in Cairo’s New Administrative capital, and includes eight buildings forming an Octagon shape.
The new facility, el-Sissi said, is equipped “with an advanced technological infrastructure, secure communication systems, and superior capabilities in information gathering and analysis.
It links leadership and executive levels within a single framework that achieves the highest degrees of integration, accuracy, and speed of response.”
