Does Telegram work in Egypt in 2026?

Telegram works stably in different parts of Egypt; we had no problems sending messages, making voice calls, or uploading media files. Local authorities do not block Telegram, so any restrictions may only be related to the quality of the internet in a specific location. However, it is important to consider the situation in Russia: Telegram is currently being blocked and slowed down there. Therefore, if you plan to actively communicate with family and friends in Russia, there may be interruptions on their side. The only messenger that is currently not blocked in Russia is the state messenger Max.
