So canceled visas or not?
We ourselves are from Minsk, but we are flying to Egypt via Moscow. I read in the news that for tourists coming from Russian travel agencies from June 1, visas are canceled.

This applies only to Russian tourists arriving in Egypt as part of organized groups. Apart from Russia and Azerbaijan, no other CIS countries were included in the "visa-free" list.

Very sorry((
Thanks for the answer.
Can you tell me about the Sinai visa? Is it open without problems if you ask? And is it possible to go on an excursion to the pyramids with her?

For tourists (regardless of citizenship) entering through Taba from Israel by land, the Sinai stamp is set by default.
For those who enter Egypt through the seaport of Nuweiba and the airports of Taba and Sharm el-Sheikh, this information will be relevant. It is not necessary to pay fifteen dollars for a visa in Egypt if you rest only on the territory of the Sinai Peninsula.

About the visa itself:
Like all tourists, you fill out a migration card at Sharm El Sheikh Airport. Then in line for the purchase of a visa. But for the Sinai visa, you need to write “SINAI ONLY” on the back of the migration card. And then go to the border guard, who will put the “Sinai visa”. Of course, you can approach the meeting guides, but they themselves do not really know.

Keep in mind that even the Egyptian border guard can start to "confuse" you and, of course, send you to the queue for a $15 visa! From the border guard you can hear: "With this visa, you can only stay on the territory of the hotel" "You are not allowed on excursions" "You cannot visit Israel or Jordan" Sinai stamp" You will not be able to go on excursions (for example: Cairo Pyramids, Alexandria, Ras Mohammed Nature Reserve, Hurghada). Stand your ground! From the moment of receipt (stamp in the passport) you have 15 days of continuous stay in the territory of validity of this visa. Also know that with this visa you can visit neighboring countries Israel and Jordan!

It is not clear why in the queue for a visa and where is this border guard?

Upon arrival in Sharm El Sheikh
In the airport building, you will be met by representatives of the Tour Company. By presenting them your voucher, you will receive a migration registration card in which you fill in your passport details in English.
Next, purchase a visa stamp on your own (BANK counter with the inscription "VISA") worth 15 US dollars and then go to the counter with the inscription PASSPORT CONTROL. After passing through passport control, you will receive your baggage on a conveyor belt, next to which your flight number will be indicated on an electronic scoreboard. When you exit the airport, you will be met by guides with signs of the Tour Company, they will take you to the bus that will take you to the hotels or they will tell you the number of the bus that will take you to your hotel.
With the SINAI STAMP - you miss the point of buying a visa, and go DIRECTLY to PASSPORT CONTROL - EVERYTHING passes there and with a visa purchased for $ 15 - allowing you to stay 30 days in the country of Egypt, and with a free Sinai stamp - allowing you to stay 15 days in the country of Egypt only in the Sinai Peninsula!

Sinai visa - free of charge!!! on the migration card, in the address column (where only the name of the hotel is usually written), you must indicate ONLY SINAI and the name of your hotel, and repeat several times at passport control that you will be on the territory of the Sinai Peninsula .... and on On the reverse side of this card (it is almost blank there) they wrote "SINAI ONLY" - albeit on an oblique one.
In the resorts, you can move freely by yourself and by public transport. Tours of the Sinai stamp are available to most, including Israel.
With Sinai stamp NOT POSSIBLE to visit
1) Ras Mohammed on the BUS,
2) Cairo by bus,
3) Cairo by plane,
4) Luxor on a plane and the rest is Africa!
The rest of the excursions are ALLOWED to visit with a Sinai stamp - Ras Mohammed on a BOAT, Petra, Mount Moses, the Monastery of St. Catherine and Israel as well. As well as motorcycle safaris, super safaris, water parks and others in the place!

but if I want to go to the Colored Canyon, they will let me in from the Sinai only? Or will they take away your passport? I'm very interested in this question

In the Colored Canyon, with a Sinai stamp, they take your passport, and give it back on the way back. Sometimes they miss and so, maybe it depends on the shift.
The main thing is that no one wrote that they would not give back their passport.
