Claim: The Central Agency for Public Mobilization and Statistics announced that you are officially below the poverty threshold if your income is less than 12.321 pounds.
On 30 November 2024, a page called lamoo4 published a photo claiming that the Central Agency for Public Mobilization and Statistics said that if your income is less than 12.321 pounds, you are officially below the poverty threshold.
This statement is fabricated. The Central Agency for Public Mobilization and Statistics has not issued any recent reports about the poverty threshold.
The value of the national poverty threshold per individual is determined by income and research issued by the Central Agency for Public Mobilization and Statistics. The latest research, covering the years 2020/2019, set the poverty line for an individual at 858.3 Egyptian pounds per month.
Furthermore, a Google image search shows that the image has been circulating online since 2019 and is constantly repeated at different times.

Accounts and pages on social media have been circulating news, sourced from the Egyptian newspaper Al-Shorouk, stating that individuals with a monthly income below 8827 Egyptian pounds have officially been classified as living below the poverty line.
The news has been proven to be false, as the design was fabricated to include a report published by the Egyptian newspaper Al-Shorouk in 2019, not recently. It stated that those with an annual income below 8827 Egyptian pounds have officially been classified as living below the poverty line.
The design is fabricated. The original design states that if your income is less than 8827 Egyptian pounds “annually,” not “monthly.”
