Sorry got distracted checking sources for the change time and meant to post:

Rule    Egypt    2016    only    -    Jul     8    01:00    1:00	S

as sources (some vague) seem to indicate 01.00 local for the change time.
Given the quality of information sources, waiting for official confirmation
seems prudent and necessary in this case.
