Saudi FM Arrives in Jordan for Gaza Meeting
The Saudi Foreign Minister, Prince Faisal bin Farhan, has arrived in Amman, the capital of Jordan, to participate in a meeting on Gaza, according to the Saudi Foreign Ministry. On Saturday, Prince Faisal bin Farhan landed in Amman to take part in a meeting of the Ministerial Committee assigned by the Joint Arab-Islamic Extraordinary Summit on the developments in the Gaza Strip. The meeting will explore ways to support efforts to end the war and blockade on Gaza. The meeting originally aimed to coordinate a visit to Ramallah in the occupied West Bank, scheduled on Sunday. However, the visit was postponed due to Israel's decision to prevent the Arab delegation from meeting the President of Palestine, Mahmoud Abbas, according to Jordan's Foreign Ministry. The delegation, which include the foreign ministers of Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Qatar, Jordan and the UAE, condemned the Israeli ban as a 'blatant violation' of Israel's obligations as an occupying power. The Saudi Foreign Minister traveled to Jordan right after an official visit to Syria, where he met with the Syrian Transitional President, Ahmed Al-Sharaa, in Damascus. Prince Faisal was accompanied by a high-level economic delegation to discuss avenues for joint cooperation aimed at supporting Syria's economy, enhancing the development of its governmental institutions, and fulfilling the aspirations of the Syrian people, the Saudi Foreign Ministry said in a statement. The discussions led to the announcement of a Saudi-Qatari joint financial support package for Syrian public sector employees for three months, according to Saudi Gazette. 'This support aims to contribute to economic and social stability, improve living conditions, and reinforce development efforts in Syria,' Saudi Arabia and Qatar said in a joint statement.

Egypt's manufacturing index rises 3.9% in March
RIYADH: Egypt's manufacturing and extractive industries index — excluding crude oil and petroleum products—rose by 3.9 percent in March, reaching 120.47 points, up from 115.93 in February, according to the Central Agency for Public Mobilization and Statistics. The increase was largely driven by seasonal demand for food and a significant boost in steel rebar production, CAPMAS reported. The monthly index, which uses the fiscal year 2012-13 as its base and reflects producer prices from January 2020 onward, is part of Egypt's ongoing efforts to enhance industrial measurement standards. The rise in manufacturing activity also coincides with Egypt's strengthening economic ties with Arab markets. Total trade volume with Arab countries reached $30.5 billion in 2024—a 16 percent increase from $26.3 billion in 2023. Egyptian exports to Arab nations rose by 18 percent to $16.2 billion, while imports grew by 14 percent to $14.3 billion. Saudi Arabia remained Egypt's top Arab trading partner, with bilateral trade surpassing $11.3 billion. Egyptian exports to the Kingdom totaled $3.4 billion, followed by the UAE at $3.3 billion and Libya at $2 billion. On the import side, Egypt received $7.9 billion in goods from Saudi Arabia, $2.7 billion from the UAE, and $947 million from Kuwait. Sector-wise, the food manufacturing index jumped 10.18 percent in March, rising to 160.02 from 145.24 in February—driven by Ramadan-related consumption. The base metals sector saw even sharper growth, climbing 22.89 percent to 65.92 from 53.64, largely due to heightened steel rebar production amid robust construction and infrastructure activity. However, not all sectors fared equally. The tobacco products index plummeted by 27.44 percent to 118.84, down from 163.78 in February, reflecting a drop in cigarette consumption. Similarly, the printing and reproduction of recorded media sector fell 14.43 percent to 115.18, attributed to the seasonal completion of textbook printing contracts. CAPMAS emphasized that the new figures reflect both seasonal trends and long-term structural shifts in Egypt's industrial landscape.
