Egypt is on my border. There is Egypt tiles, then one of my tiles, then IN THE MIDDLE OF MY TERRITORY is ONE Egyptian tile.

WTF? How is this even possible?
 
Cities will claim the closest tiles to them (aiming for resources) and it doesn't matter if the closest unclaimed tile available is within your borders, it will claim it
 
This happens often when you capture enemy cities. It distributes the tiles between the two cities based on some sort of order with which the cities claimed the tiles, so frequently you'll see a major city having "sattelite" tiles within the area that is now your tiles but used to belong to them.
