ALXnow’s top stories this week in Alexandria

It’s been a big week for ALXnow in particular with reporter James Cullum and Netsanet Hailu welcoming a new daughter Blanquita ‘Coco’ Cullum.

Elsewhere across Alexandria, some of the fallout continued from last week’s mid-air collision as new air restrictions around National Airport went into place.
