FILE - In this Aug. 6, 2015 file photo, Egyptian President Abdel-Fattah el-Sissi waves as he arrives to the opening ceremony of the new section of the Suez Canal in Ismailia, Egypt. A new 54-article anti-terrorism bill signed into law by el-Sissi was announced on Monday, Aug. 17, 2015, establishing stiffer prison sentences for offences deemed to be terrorism-related, heavy fines for journalists who publish “false news” and a special judicial circuit for terrorism-related cases. Egypt has not had a parliament for over two years, and legislative authority rests with el-Sissi. (AP Photo/Hassan Ammar, File)
