Egyptian President Abdel-Fattah al-Sisi appointed on Thursday Presidency Chief-of-staff Abbas Kamel as the acting chief of the General Intelligence Service (GIS).
Kamel, who will remain in office until a new chief is named, replaced Khaled Fazwy as the GIS chief, according to the presidency media office.
Fawzy, 61, had held the office of GIS chief since December 2014.
On Sunday, the Egyptian parliament approved a limited cabinet reshuffle, with four new ministers named for the portfolios of local development, culture, tourism and the public business sector.
The four new appointments were proposed earlier by Sisi.
