Egyptian President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi said a few days ago that his country hosts 9 million "guests" - whose nationalities he did not specify. About 14,000 Sudanese have entered Egypt through border crossings in recent days.

There are no documented official statistics on the number of Arabs residing in Egypt, but their numbers are estimated at millions. Observers believe that the Arab diversity, which is expanding in Egypt in recent periods, is due to the friendliness of Egyptians with the Arabs.
