President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi met on Sunday with Mona al-Sayed, know in the local media as the 'Woman with the Cart.' The meeting took place at the presidential Ettihadiya palace.
The photo of a woman pulling a heavy cart, loaded with merchandise in Alexandria, went viral on social media, prompting sympathy with her.
The presidency earlier declared that Sisi was to meet the woman today to honor her.
