In late 2025, Egypt garnered international attention by hosting the Sharm el-Sheikh conference and opening the Grand Egyptian Museum. However, domestic developments, including parliamentary elections in November and December, received less focus. Pro-government parties dominated the elections, criticized for limited political participation. The elections have not garnered significant public interest, continuing a trend since President Abdel Fattah el-Sisi assumed power. These events occurred amidst the backdrop of the ongoing conflict in Gaza.
