GENOCIDE  WATCH

Egypt faces security threats from Islamic State–Sinai Province (IS-SP), while President Abdel Fattah el-Sisi’s government has increased political repression and military influence. Nubians and Coptic Christians experience discrimination, while women face economic barriers; these concerns correspond to Stage 3: Discrimination, Stage 5: Organization, and Stage 6: Polarization of Genocide Watch’s Ten Stages of Genocide framework. The report recommends strengthening minority protections, holding authorities accountable for human rights violations, and improving women’s economic opportunities.
