Held in Oran, Algeria, the Mediterranean games have been a massive success for Egyptians taking part. They’ve thus far won 43 medals in total, with eleven gold medals, fourteen silver, and eighteen bronze.


Wth 183 players Egypt made its presence known in various sports from weight lifting to karate to judo to football. Victors include superstar athletes who made their names known with their historic 2020 Tokyo Olympics success like karate master Feryal Ashraf Abdelaziz and taekwondo specialist Hedaya Malak,  as well as athletic powerhouses like Naeema Saeed who won two gold medals in weightlifting at the Mediterranean Games, and Bassant Hemida with another two gold medals in sprinting. 


With at least one more full day left, we’re rooting for our Egyptian athletes to add to their collection until July 5th.
