Animal welfare in Egypt

The Egyptian Society of Animal Friends (ESAF)[6] was able to feed 700 horses, veterinary care was provided, nosebands and fly masks were distributed.

In four days, 526 animals were fed and ultimately 1,857 horses and donkeys and 94 camels were tended to using the aid of the Humane Society International (HSI).
