Egypt consumer agency seizes expired medical supplies and 6.5 tons of unfit herring

Egypt's Consumer Protection Agency has seized expired medical supplies and 6.5 tons of herring unfit for human consumption in raids across two governorates.

• In Qalyubia, a regional branch seized an establishment selling expired medical supplies and cosmetics with false data, confiscating about 1,500 items.
• In Gharbia, inspectors seized two unlicensed herring-processing establishments using fictitious brand names and confiscated 6.5 tons of fish unfit for consumption.
• Both cases were referred to the public prosecutor's office.
• Agency chief Ibrahim Al-Sajini said the agency will intensify inspection campaigns in all governorates to keep violative products from reaching markets.
