Mazaya Developments to launch new east Cairo project in H2 2025
Mohamed Allam, Chairperson of Mazaya Developments, confirmed that the company currently has access to several promising land plots with large areas and is in the final stages of evaluating the most suitable opportunity for development. He emphasized that the new project will mark a significant addition to Mazaya's portfolio and reinforce its long-term growth plans.
Allam highlighted that Mazaya's development philosophy is grounded in detailed planning and high construction quality, ensuring that each project adheres to the highest standards. He added that the company's current portfolio includes four mixed-use developments in the New Administrative Capital (NAC), with total investments exceeding EGP 8bn.
Among these is the company's flagship project, THE ROOK, located on a 2,650 sqm plot in the NAC's Downtown area. The 14-floor building (plus four basement parking levels) spans 11,000 sqm, with over 94% of the concrete structure completed. Interior finishing works are currently underway, and façade installation is expected to begin shortly. The project is slated for delivery in December 2025.
Mazaya's second NAC development, Gemini Red, is also located in Downtown on a 2,370 sqm plot. With 38% of the concrete structure complete, the 16-floor building with three basement levels spans 11,300 sqm and is scheduled for handover in June 2026.
The third project, Gemini Blue, is advancing steadily. With foundation work completed, the structure will encompass 20,700 sqm, featuring four basement levels, a ground floor, and 15 upper floors. Construction began in December 2024, with completion targeted for December 2026.
The fourth project, Norm Spaces, is located in the MU23 district and spans 6,700 sqm. Soil testing has been completed, and excavation work is expected to begin in Q3 2025. The project will feature luxury residential units and follows a fast-tracked construction schedule.
Looking ahead, Allam forecasted a pickup in real estate activity following Ramadan, driven by seasonal demand during the summer and a wave of new project launches—particularly in east Cairo and the North Coast. He reaffirmed that real estate remains one of the safest and most attractive investment avenues, underpinned by genuine market demand. He further noted that price stability is likely if exchange rates and broader economic conditions remain steady.

Funding for National Veal Project tops EGP 10bn, reaching over 45,000 beneficiaries
Alaa Farouk, Minister of Agriculture and Land Reclamation, announced that funding for the National Veal Project has surpassed EGP 10bn, supporting more than 45,000 beneficiaries. The initiative aims to rear and fatten over 522,000 head of cattle, strengthening Egypt's domestic production of meat and dairy. In its latest session, the project's Board of Directors approved EGP 337.832m in new financing for 194 beneficiaries, including small-scale breeders and young graduates, to support 2,089 head of cattle. With this allocation, total project funding now stands at EGP 10.053bn, covering around 45,100 recipients and more than 522,500 heads of cattle, including calves for meat production and high-yield dairy heifers. Farouk said the project contributes to increasing beef and milk supply in local markets while creating new employment opportunities. It also supports the presidential initiative Hayah Karima, launched by President Abdel Fattah Al-Sisi to improve rural livelihoods and raise living standards for small farmers and breeders. He stressed its importance in making red meat available at fair and reasonable prices for both producers and consumers, while helping stabilise livestock, meat, and dairy prices. The Minister added that specialised field committees from the Livestock and Poultry Development Sector and the General Authority for Veterinary Services, in cooperation with local agricultural and veterinary directorates, are conducting regular follow-ups to provide veterinary support and address challenges faced by beneficiaries on the ground. Mostafa El-Sayyad, Deputy Minister of Agriculture and Land Reclamation, confirmed that the Ministry, together with the Agricultural Bank of Egypt and the National Bank of Egypt—the project's main financiers—carries out technical inspections of barns to ensure proper facilities and adequate space before loans are approved. Once livestock is delivered, animals are insured through the Livestock Insurance Fund at discounted rates, providing beneficiaries with additional support. Tarek Suleiman, Head of the Livestock and Poultry Development Sector, noted that participation in the project is open through the nearest agricultural administration office or any branch of the Agricultural Bank of Egypt or the National Bank of Egypt, both of which have a nationwide presence.

Israel's Economy Shrinks Unexpectedly Well Below Growth Forecasts
Taarek Refaat Israel's economy contracted sharply in the second quarter of 2025, as the 12-day war with Iran triggered a nationwide disruption of commercial activity and dragged down consumer spending and investment. According to data released Sunday by the Israeli Central Bureau of Statistics, gross domestic product (GDP) shrank by 3.5% on an annualized basis, seasonally adjusted, a stark contrast to the 0.2% median growth estimate predicted by a Bloomberg survey of six economists. The economic decline came on the heels of a surprise Israeli offensive launched on June 13 targeting Iran's nuclear infrastructure and military installations. Israel labeled Iran's nuclear program a "strategic existential threat." In retaliation, Iran launched multiple ballistic missile attacks, prompting mass sheltering across Israeli cities and a near-complete shutdown of economic activity. The war's economic toll was felt most acutely in private consumption, which plunged 4.1%, and Gross fixed capital formation, which plummeted 12.3%, as reported by the statistics bureau. The war also introduced fresh uncertainty into regional stability, rattling investor sentiment and delaying major infrastructure and housing projects. The Bank of Israel still projects 3.3% GDP growth for 2025, but the Finance Ministry last week revised its outlook downward to 3.1%, citing the war's impact and growing fiscal pressures. Achieving even these revised figures will now depend on a strong economic rebound in the second half of the year, a challenging feat amid ongoing military escalations. Further compounding economic uncertainty is Israel's announced preparation for a large-scale ground operation in Gaza, with the stated aim of "eliminating Hamas presence." Military analysts estimate the move could displace over one million Palestinians and require the mobilization of tens of thousands of reservists, placing additional strain on public spending and labor market productivity. With defense spending surging and domestic consumption slowing, Israel faces a delicate balancing act: restoring economic momentum while navigating escalating regional conflict. 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 Videos & Features Story behind Trending Jessica Radcliffe Death Video 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 Arts & Culture South Korean Actress Kang Seo-ha Dies at 31 after Cancer Battle Lifestyle Get to Know 2025 Eid Al Adha Prayer Times in Egypt News The Jessica Radcliffe Orca Attack? 100% Fake and AI-Generated
