Egypt do block VPNs in much more aggressive way than Cloudflare. Also this is my first time to hear that cloudflare is blocked in Egypt. People will even complain that they cannot connect to their cooperate VPNs.

Blocking cloudflare ip addresses means that half of the internet wouldn't be accessible from Egypt. its closw to blocking port 443 because some people use DNS over https.

disclaimer: I'm Egyptian living in the US.

Have someone in Egypt look at our site. Its been blocked for about 3 months.

Apparently there is a pool of IP's that Cloudflare use for their CDN and some of them are blocked in Egypt. If you are unlucky enough to be one of the websites that is using that IP, it's blocked. Apparently they rotate them, but I haven't seen it yet, so chances are, when they do rotate them, more will be blocked.
