Mt Sinai watch
Daniel 11 45 And he shall plant the tabernacles of his palace between the seas in the glorious holy mountain; yet he shall come to his end, and none shall help him. Daniel 11
Mt Sinai, often referred to as the holy mountain, is in Egypt between two “seas”, the Gulf of Suez and Gulf of Aqaba
Currently there is a monastery in Egypt on Mt Sinai called Abbey of Saint Catherine. Lately there has been some controversy about the ownership of this area.
Cultural Property News: Update June 7, 2025: Egyptian press reported today that Pope Tawadros II, the head of Egypt’s Coptic Orthodox Church, and Pope Leo XIV, head of the Vatican, had a telephone conversation on June 6 “praising Egypt’s political leadership” for reaffirming that monks at Saint Catherine’s Monastery would not be removed. In fact, the article restated the same restrictions and assertions that the monastery was Egyptian public property, to which Pope Tawadros II vehemently objects.
