ُEU Helps Boosting Egypt's Green Transition
By Ahmad El-Assasy
On 15 June, the European Union and the Government of Egypt will launch the EU-Egypt Investment Guarantee for Development Mechanism.
This platform will attract investments to high impact projects in areas such as clean energy, water and wastewater management and sustainable agriculture. It will also support digital transformation, and the development of small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs).
The platform aims to mobilise up to €5 billion in investments by 2027. This includes €1.8 billion announced as part of the EU-Egypt Strategic and Comprehensive Partnership. To achieve this, the platform will leverage EU resources from the European Fund for Sustainable Development Plus (EFSD+). It will also draw resources from European and International Financial Institutions (IFIs) that implement EU guarantees in close coordination with Member States and the private sector.
It marks a key milestone under the EU-Egypt Strategic and Comprehensive Partnership and contributes to the EU's Global Gateway strategy.

Gunmen Kill Nearly 100 in Coordinated Attack in Central Nigeria
By Ahmad El-Assasy A coordinated and brutal assault on the village of Yelwata in Nigeria's central Benue State has left nearly 100 people dead, according to eyewitness accounts. The attackers, believed to be armed groups, stormed the village, opening fire on residents and setting homes ablaze. Radio France Internationale (RFI) reported that the assailants approached the village from three different directions, surrounding it before launching a barrage of gunfire that sparked widespread panic and chaos. This massacre marks the latest tragedy in a long-running cycle of violence between Fulani herders and settled farmers in Nigeria's volatile Middle Belt region. Tensions in the area have been steadily rising due to disputes over land ownership and dwindling access to natural resources—pressures that have been exacerbated by climate change and rapid population growth. Just two weeks earlier, a similar attack in the same region claimed the lives of at least 25 people, underscoring the persistent instability and growing humanitarian toll. Local officials and humanitarian agencies have condemned the killings and called for urgent action to de-escalate the conflict and protect vulnerable communities. 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 China Launches Largest Ever Aircraft Carrier Sports Former Al Zamalek Player Ibrahim Shika Passes away after Long Battle with Cancer Lifestyle Get to Know 2025 Eid Al Adha Prayer Times in Egypt Business Fear & Greed Index Plummets to Lowest Level Ever Recorded amid Global Trade War Arts & Culture Zahi Hawass: Claims of Columns Beneath the Pyramid of Khafre Are Lies News Flights suspended at Port Sudan Airport after Drone Attacks News Shell Unveils Cost-Cutting, LNG Growth Plan Videos & Features Video: Trending Lifestyle TikToker Valeria Márquez Shot Dead during Live Stream Technology 50-Year Soviet Spacecraft 'Kosmos 482' Crashes into Indian Ocean News 3 Killed in Shooting Attack in Thailand

Jordan Activates Air Raid Sirens Amid Regional Escalation
By Ahmad El-Assasy Jordan issued early morning air raid sirens on Sunday as a precautionary measure in response to escalating regional tensions and security developments in the Middle East. According to the Jordan News Agency (Petra), the sirens were activated to alert citizens and raise public preparedness amid the growing uncertainty in the region. The move forms part of broader emergency protocols aimed at ensuring public safety and national security. In a related development, Royal Jordanian Airlines announced that incoming flights to the kingdom have been diverted to alternative destinations.

It urged travelers to check the status of their flights and follow updates via the official Royal Jordanian website and mobile app. Royal Jordanian reaffirmed its commitment to passenger safety and the continued provision of high-quality service during this period of uncertainty. 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 China Launches Largest Ever Aircraft Carrier Sports Former Al Zamalek Player Ibrahim Shika Passes away after Long Battle with Cancer Lifestyle Get to Know 2025 Eid Al Adha Prayer Times in Egypt Business Fear & Greed Index Plummets to Lowest Level Ever Recorded amid Global Trade War Arts & Culture Zahi Hawass: Claims of Columns Beneath the Pyramid of Khafre Are Lies News Flights suspended at Port Sudan Airport after Drone Attacks News Shell Unveils Cost-Cutting, LNG Growth Plan Videos & Features Video: Trending Lifestyle TikToker Valeria Márquez Shot Dead during Live Stream Technology 50-Year Soviet Spacecraft 'Kosmos 482' Crashes into Indian Ocean News 3 Killed in Shooting Attack in Thailand
