    • According to the most recent official statistics from the Central Agency for Public Mobilisation and Statistics (CAPMAS), the poverty rate is said to have fallen from 32.5 % in 2017/18 to 29.7 % in 2019/20. Critics however presume that the report was “massaged” in response to government pressure, and that the actual rate had already been much higher at that time.

[…] Some experts have pointed to the steady increase in signing bonuses, wages, and benefits as evidence that authorities are having difficulty attracting enough recruits to keep the war going.
