Egypt's media regulator summons Al-Hadath Al-Youm over breaches in four shows

Egypt's Supreme Council for Media Regulation has summoned Al-Hadath Al-Youm's legal representative for a hearing after flagging violations in four programs.

• The council, chaired by Khaled Abdelaziz, has summoned the channel's legal representative for the hearing.
• The Complaints Committee, headed by Essam El-Amir, cited breaches in episodes of "Nabz Al-Watan," "Amn wa Aman," "Khatt Ahmar," and "Al-Mashwar ma'a Rawan."
• SCMR said the move targets the "selling of airtime" phenomenon and that it will continue monitoring media and social platforms for violations.
• SCMR said it will take legal action against any violations of laws and professional codes it detects.
