Rare snow storm hits popular Red Sea resort in Egypt

Usually a warm winter destination for European tourists, Egypt’s Red Sea resort of Hurghada was blanketed in snow, Reuters reports.

Social media video showed heavy hail falling down on cars in almost empty streets as most of the city’s residents and tourists stayed indoors.

The pandemic has impacted the country's tourism industry, which accounts for 5 percent of total GDP.
