Fortification in a desert is very difficult. Desert is not the terrain for fortifications, as the ground is too fine to entrench in, and anything above ground is essentially painting a sign on it that says "Troops in here! Shoot at me!" even worse, fortifications are likely to be under fire during their construction, slowing the process dramatically and being costly in terms of manpower. Seeing that the enemy is trying to fortify their positions, constant suppressive fire any time a work crew arrives would be utilized to keep them from efficiently working. With the enemy forming distinct formations and lines, unlike Egypt, artillery barrages, drone strikes, and rocket volleys to inflict massive damages on enemy forces, targeting either large clusters of infantry or vehicles, or anti-tank and anti-air emplacements. The Egyptian forces operating on this front are primarily vehicular, so to keep the enemy on edge and reduce the effectiveness of artillery substantially, forces will almost always be on the move, sometimes appearing to briefly harass the enemy before vanishing amongst the dunes. With the 3 divisions that pioneered the assault likely in shambles from a foolish charge, a heavy artillery support, and inferior numbers, Egypt would begin strikes on weakened troops and push through their lines at minimal cost. Additionally, the Junta has authorized another 60,000 troops for the war, doubling our forces. In the South, Egypt would begin heavily fortifying in the event of an invasion, taking advantage of the natural jungle and alpine terrain to make an utter nightmarish frontline for any attacking forces from the South.
