CAIRO, Feb. 22 (Xinhua) Incidents of detaining Egyptian fishermen by some Arab and African countries around the Red Sea and the Mediterranean Sea are common recently which require the government s intervention for their release. It was a horrible experience to stay in detention for almost two months, said Adel Omran, a 48-year old fisherman who was a crew member of a boat that was seized at the border with Yemen in 2020. I planned to stay for three days in the water to catch more quantities but one of our two boats was broken near the prohibited areas, Omran told Xinhua, adding that fishing is about patience and seizing opportunities.
