Sexual harassment in Egypt: facts and figures

For an article I am currently writing I was searching for facts and figures on sexual harassment in Egypt. I came across a 2013 UN Women report that was released recently. 
I think it’s fairly new research, as I haven’t seen much reporting on it. 

As expected, the report is collection of sad statistics, starting with the fact that 99,3% of female respondents claim to have faced sexual harassment. 49,2% of the victims says it happens daily, 19,2% weekly, 7,3% monthly and for only 3,4% it was a single event.
