Jan 8: The Environment Minister, Khaled Fahmy, said that the beached fin whale which appeared on Alexandria’s shores on Sunday may have committed suicide.
In Sunday’s phone-in with the ‘Yahdoth Fe Masr’ (Happening in Egypt) talk show on the MBC Masr channel, Fahmy said that the whale may have committed suicide, a bizarre phenomenon which occurs for unknown reasons among whales.
He added, however, that there may be another explanation.
