Egypt's parliament has postponed its vote on military assistance to Saudi Arabia until October 26. The chamber also cut its weekly session short on Sunday, pushing further debates to Monday. No reason was given for either the delayed vote or the interrupted sitting. The package concerns military aid, an area where Cairo and Riyadh have cooperated closely for years. Lawmakers now have a fixed date a little over a week away to settle the matter. Until then the assistance plan stays in limbo while the parliament deals with its other pending business.
