A woman gave birth to seven babies Saturday in the Egyptian coastal city of Alexandria after a caesarean operation, local media reported.
The 27-year-old mother and her septuplets, four boys and three girls, were in good condition, local media quoted medical staff at the El-Shatbi Hospital as saying.
The Egyptian woman had the operation at the end of her eighth month of pregnancy due to pressure on her kidneys.
She used to take fertility drugs.
Local media said the Egyptian government is to offer the seven infants free milk and diapers for two years.
