Al-Waqa'i' al-Misriyya was an Egyptian newspaper (now a government information bulletin) established in 1828 on the order of Muhammad Ali, originally called "Vekayi-i Misriye" and written in Ottoman Turkish in one column with an Arabic translation in a second column (Ottoman Turkish text was in the right one and Arabic text in the left one), and later in Arabic only[1] under the Arabic title.
