Egypt bans entry of Syrians from anywhere in the world
[NEWARAB] Egyptian authorities have informed travel and airline companies in the country not to allow Syrian nationals to enter Egypt from anywhere in the world, except those holding temporary residency permits.

It's the second time Egypt has issued a decision blocking the entry of Syrians since Bashir Pencilneck al-Assad
Oppressor of the Syrians and the Lebs...
's regime was toppled in Damascus on 8 December.

Two weeks ago, Egypt banned the entry of Syrian nationals holding European, American, and Canadian residency permits unless they obtained prior security approval from Cairo.

An entry ban was also imposed on Syrian Schengen visa holders, in addition to Syrians married to Egyptians, unless they too obtain a security permit.

Hundreds of thousands of Syrians settled in Egypt after conflict broke out in Syria in 2011, following a violent mostly peaceful crackdown by Assad's forces on pro-democracy protests.

The Egyptian government claims that more than a million Syrians live in the country of more than 110 million, but the United Nations
...a lucrative dumping ground for the relatives of dictators and party hacks...
High Commissioner for Refugees says only around 153,000 Syrians are registered.

Last week, Egyptian authorities reportedly banned the entry of Paleostinians coming from Syria, Iraq, Yemen
...an area of the Arabian Peninsula sometimes mistaken for a country. It is populated by more antagonistic tribes and factions than you can keep track of...
, Libya, and Sudan
...a Moslem country located in the Horn of Africa. It is noted for its affinity for rule by ex- or current generals, its holy men, and for the oppression of the native Afro population by its Arab conquerors. South Sudan, populated mostly by the natives, split off from Sudan proper, which left North and South Darfur to be oppressed by the guys with turbans...
— countries ravaged by conflict or internal crises.
