Monks of Wadi Rayyan published maps of alternative ways to resolve the crisis of the international road.
Spokesperson of the Coptic Orthodox Church said that church doesn’t oppose the state and its development projects.
A study showed that there are alternative roads that will cost less money and protect monuments in the area.
Majid Rahib, head of protecting the Egyptian Heritage association, had revealed the existence of 40 archaeological areas inside the monastery of Wadi El Rayan, some of which will be destroyed by the new road.
