I'd rather prefer that this very diptera wasn't so common here.
Everywhere.
1. Is it Musca? domestica?
2. Is the larvae on dirty sand on the beach of this fly?

Hi Nikita
Indeed a Muscinae, most likely Musca itself.
Did you check the camels on the botfly Cephelopina ?

Thank you Theo.
This Musca ruins the reputation of whole Diptera order here in Sinai.
As for camel. I haven't seen botfly. A lot of Muscidae. And one new Calliphoridae, like Chrysomia, but very small.
