Egyptian actress Marwa Abdel Moneim was rushed to hospital after suffering a sudden injury during the filming of a television program, following a lion cub attack during a recorded segment.

Reports say she was participating in a segment involving a lion cub when the animal unexpectedly attacked, causing her injury and briefly disrupting filming.
