Fake AI image sparks false niqab mandate rumors Egypt’s Ministry of Education and Technical Education has clarified that a social media post claiming a mandatory face veil policy at Nagaa Said Preparatory Co-educational School in Dishna, Qena Governorate, was published in error and promptly removed.
