Egypt's Ministry of Water Resources and Irrigation issued a statement blaming the Ethiopian government for an artificial September flood that caused humanitarian disasters in Sudan and inundated low-lying Nile lands in Egypt's Delta. The statement described the management of the Ethiopian dam as unilateral and irresponsible, shifting the natural flood's timing and triggering a more severe deluge. Egypt affirmed its commitment to patience but kept all options open to protect its water rights.
