President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi is likely to run for re-election in the 2024 elections. He is expected to face off against a former member of the 25/30 forces.

The elections are unlikely to see the emergence of a candidate from the military, writes H.A. Hellyer. He says the elections should be held in a free and fair environment. The role of the National Commission that oversees the presidential elections should also be strengthened. Heller: The release of prisoners should be a concern for the public.
