Description

Andreas Kreig, a senior lecturer in security studies at Kings College London, said: "You do not need to clear that much ground to stage waiting trucks. To me it very much looks like Egypt making preparations for the worst-case scenario."

"If you put this in perspective of how big this area this is, 16 km sq of trucks, that is thousands and thousands of trucks. There's never been a situation where you've had thousands of trucks waiting at the border."
