Qorsaya_Island_0017

Qorsaya residents depends heavily on agriculture, livestock and fishing, so they believe that their lives would be impossible outside the island where their ancestors have lived for about 100 years. The people of the island felt relatively stable after a government decision to cancel a tourist project that was scheduled to be established on the island and most army members left the island after the 25 January revolution, since they were redeployed to other Egyptian cities.
