🔥 Many times bigger than the Pentagon! "The Octagon," Egypt's new magnificent military command center, 🇪🇬

You know, Egypt now has a magnificent military command center with a huge area, larger than the U.S. "Pentagon"! 🏢✨

This is called "The Octagon," located in the heart of Egypt's new administrative capital. The brutality is that the overall area of the complex is about 22,000 acres, or about 89 square kilometers, which, compared to the size of the land, is many times larger than the Pentagon. 📐

The design of this will be an 8-square building, serving as the "Central Command Center" of the Egyptian Army unified in one place, from military leadership, strategic operations, intelligence, logistics to advanced communications systems, emphasizing the most tight cyber security and defense systems. 🛡️🤖

This major project reflects that Egypt is making long-term investments to modernize its military and wants to reinforce its role as the top military power in the Middle East and North Africa. 💪

But this story has a reminiscent angle...

If you choose, would you like to see countries spend a huge amount of money on building this kind of super-military infrastructure? Or should you focus more on "infrastructure for people" like schools, hospitals and public transportation? Let's exchange views. 👇💬
