Gharbiya Governor Ahmed Daif Saqr decided to close down 13 private hospitals in Tanta and el Mahla el Kobra.

This came because these hospitals did not abide by the medical requirements.

In a statement issued on Monday, Saqr said that he gave directives to the Health Ministry undersecretary in Gharbiya to follow up conditions in hospitals and punish those who breach instructions.
