“This information is completely incorrect, and we’ve repeatedly denied the presence of any US or foreign military bases on Egyptian lands,” armed forces spokesman, Colonel Ahmed Mohamed Ali, said in a statement Saturday in response to the claims raised by political activist Dalia Ziada on an Egyptian TV channel.
