Alexandria, the Egyptian city where Cleopatra was born, is at risk of sinking into the sea…
A recent study warns that the water level is rising each year, threatening buildings and residents. In the last 20 years, over 280 buildings have collapsed, and 7,000 more could follow.
Why is this happening? The sea is slowly eroding the city’s ground. Saltwater weakens buildings, and climate change makes things worse. If nothing is done, Alexandria could become a lost city under the waves!
Experts suggest building sand dunes and relocating some residents. Maybe this way, Alexandria’s story will continue for many more years!
