Egypt Is Set to Lift Travel Ban
(Wall Street Journal) Matt Bradley - Lawyers for the American civil-society workers said each of the accused would pay two million Egyptian pounds ($330,460) in bail in order to leave the country. Al Ahram reported that a U.S. military plane was waiting at Cairo International Airport to airlift the American NGO employees out of the country. Sarwat Abdel Shahid, an attorney hired to defend the U.S.-based National Democratic Institute, said the case will near a final resolution when Egypt's government legally registers at least 10 NGOs under suspicion, which he said is likely to come within days.
