Aboul Gheit Welcomes Collective Global Statement to Stop Gaza War

Amir Hagag
Mr. Ahmed Aboul Gheit, Secretary-General of the League of Arab States, welcomed a statement issued by 28 countries, including key European countries such as Britain and France, calling for an immediate end to the war on Gaza. The statement noted that "the suffering of civilians in Gaza has reached new levels of depth," and clearly condemned "the inhumane killing of civilians, including children, while trying to meet their basic needs of water and food."
Jamal Rushdi, the Secretary-General's official spokesman, quoted Aboul Gheit as saying that the statement represents a global consensus rejecting the continuation of Israel's ethnic cleansing scheme, which has reached unprecedented levels of dehumanization and depravity. What is required is to turn actions into words and exert real pressure on the occupying state to halt the daily massacre of Palestinians in Gaza. The number of victims outside aid distribution centers has exceeded 800, killed in cold blood while waiting to receive the minimum basic necessities needed to sustain their lives. The official spokesperson emphasized that Israel is acting with all cruelty to implement its plan for forced displacement, through daily killing of Palestinians and making their continued presence in the Gaza Strip impossible through starvation, deprivation of basic necessities, issuing evacuation orders, and preventing the entry of aid.
He added: "The world is called upon to take effective action to end this ongoing massacre and put an end to the occupying state's flagrant, shameful, and unprecedented defiance of the principles of international humanitarian law, which disregards even the most basic humanitarian norms."

Egypt Officially Raises Public Sector Minimum Wages

Taarek Refaat Egypt's Official Gazette has published Decree, signed by Prime Minister Mostafa Madbouly, introducing amendments to the public sector minimum wage framework effective July 1, 2025. The decree updates key provisions of the 2019 wage legislation to reflect new wage thresholds for government employees and workers at public economic authorities. The move comes amid broader economic reforms and cost-of-living concerns, with the government seeking to bolster real incomes across all employment grades in the public sector. New Minimum Monthly Wage: Exceptional 13,500 High 11,250 General Manager 10,250 First Grade 8,500 Second Grade 8,000 Third Grade 7,750 Fourth Grade 7,000 Fifth Grade 7,250 Sixth Grade 7,000 The decree also introduces an updated mechanism for a "complementary wage incentive", ensuring that any employee whose total income falls below the minimum wage threshold for their grade will receive a top-up. The calculation will exclude certain special allowances such as remote-area bonuses, risk allowances, or non-cash benefits, while regular bonuses and collective financial advantages will be averaged into the monthly wage for assessment. This incentive system aims to harmonize wage fairness across ministries and public entities while maintaining eligibility conditions aligned with the Civil Service Law and other relevant public finance legislation. The amendments were adopted following Cabinet approval and a comprehensive legal review, as referenced in the decree's legal preamble, which cites Egypt's Unified Public Finance Law and recent Law, which governs public sector bonuses and incentives. The Egyptian government has incrementally raised the minimum wage in recent years as inflationary pressures and currency fluctuations have affected purchasing power. The current adjustment follows multiple prior increases, with the most recent benchmark set in 2024 at EGP 10,000 for many categories. As of July 20, 2025, more than 3.5 million public sector employees are expected to benefit from the new wage structure, including those in administrative bodies, service agencies, and economic authorities. read more CBE: Deposits in Local Currency Hit EGP 5.25 Trillion Morocco Plans to Spend $1 Billion to Mitigate Drought Effect Gov't Approves Final Version of State Ownership Policy Document Egypt's Economy Expected to Grow 5% by the end of 2022/23- Minister Qatar Agrees to Supply Germany with LNG for 15 Years Business Oil Prices Descend amid Anticipation of Additional US Strategic Petroleum Reserves Business Suez Canal Records $704 Million, Historically Highest Monthly Revenue Business Egypt's Stock Exchange Earns EGP 4.9 Billion on Tuesday Business Wheat delivery season commences on April 15 News Israeli-Linked Hadassah Clinic in Moscow Treats Wounded Iranian IRGC Fighters Arts & Culture "Jurassic World Rebirth" Gets Streaming Date News China Launches Largest Ever Aircraft Carrier News Ayat Khaddoura's Final Video Captures Bombardment of Beit Lahia Business Egyptian Pound Undervalued by 30%, Says Goldman Sachs Videos & Features Tragedy Overshadows MC Alger Championship Celebration: One Fan Dead, 11 Injured After Stadium Fall Lifestyle Get to Know 2025 Eid Al Adha Prayer Times in Egypt Arts & Culture South Korean Actress Kang Seo-ha Dies at 31 after Cancer Battle Arts & Culture Lebanese Media: Fayrouz Collapses after Death of Ziad Rahbani Sports Get to Know 2025 WWE Evolution Results

Israa Farhan Pakistan has dispatched a new humanitarian aid flight carrying 100 tons of relief supplies to Gaza, underscoring its continued support for the Palestinian people amid the ongoing crisis.

Over 50 Abducted by Armed Group in Nigeria

Israa Farhan More than 50 people have been abducted by armed assailants in Nigeria's Zamfara State, according to a report cited by Agence France-Presse (AFP) on Sunday. The incident occurred on Friday when gunmen attacked the village of Sabon-Garin-Damri, located in the northwestern region of the country. The information was based on a report prepared for the United Nations by security analysts tracking violence in Nigeria. Zamfara State, along with other parts of northwestern Nigeria, continues to face persistent attacks from heavily armed criminal groups often referred to as bandits. These groups are known for carrying out mass abductions for ransom and raiding rural communities. The worsening security situation has raised concerns among humanitarian organizations and international observers, especially as violence spreads beyond isolated areas and disrupts local livelihoods. read more Gold prices rise, 21 Karat at EGP 3685 NATO's Role in Israeli-Palestinian Conflict US Expresses 'Strong Opposition' to New Turkish Military Operation in Syria Shoukry Meets Director-General of FAO Lavrov: confrontation bet. nuclear powers must be avoided News Iran Summons French Ambassador over Foreign Minister Remarks News Aboul Gheit Condemns Israeli Escalation in West Bank News Greek PM: Athens Plays Key Role in Improving Energy Security in Region News One Person Injured in Explosion at Ukrainian Embassy in Madrid News Israeli-Linked Hadassah Clinic in Moscow Treats Wounded Iranian IRGC Fighters Arts & Culture "Jurassic World Rebirth" Gets Streaming Date News China Launches Largest Ever Aircraft Carrier News Ayat Khaddoura's Final Video Captures Bombardment of Beit Lahia Business Egyptian Pound Undervalued by 30%, Says Goldman Sachs Videos & Features Tragedy Overshadows MC Alger Championship Celebration: One Fan Dead, 11 Injured After Stadium Fall Lifestyle Get to Know 2025 Eid Al Adha Prayer Times in Egypt Arts & Culture South Korean Actress Kang Seo-ha Dies at 31 after Cancer Battle Arts & Culture Lebanese Media: Fayrouz Collapses after Death of Ziad Rahbani Sports Get to Know 2025 WWE Evolution Results
