CAIRO, Oct 14: A woman died Friday in northern Egypt at the age of 137, according to local authorities, thus laying claim to having been the world’s longest-living person.
Amina Hassabo, who died in a village in the Daquahliya governate in the Nile delta was born in 1864, according to government services.
Hassabo would easily pass the age record held, according to the Guinness Book of Records, by Jeanne Calment of France, who died in 1997 at 122.—AFP
