30 Million Locust Descend Upon Egypt

30 million locusts descended upon Egypt last weekend. The horde seemed to be centered around Southern Cairo. The government claims to have the situation under control but it still seems to be happening. Citizens set fire to tires to disperse the swarm but no success. "The armed forces and the Egyptian border units are trying to battle the swarm, I ask the families living in the area afflicted with the swarm to not light car tires. It doesn't drive the locusts away, it only causes damage," said Egypt's Prime Minister. The swarm has neighboring Israel on alert. There was warnings of a swarm back in November but those warnings were brushed off. What's next? Cue the frogs.
