Abou El-Enein Foundation Supports Gaza with Over 15K Tons of Humanitarian Supplies
Abou El-Enein Foundation for Social and Cultural Activities participated in the 11th humanitarian convoy launched by the National Alliance for Civil Development Work from Rafah crossing border, carrying food, relief, and medical aid to support the Palestinian people in the Gaza Strip.
This participation comes as a continuation of the foundation's efforts since the onset of the aggression on Gaza, during which it has contributed to successive convoys organized by the Alliance.
To date, the foundation has provided more than 15,000 tons of food, medicine, and essential supplies, as part of its national and humanitarian duty towards the Palestinian brothers and sisters.
The foundation affirmed that the 11th convoy marks a new milestone in the ongoing support efforts, which are under the direct supervision of the Egyptian state and fully supported by the political leadership, led by President Abdel Fattah El-Sisi, who continues to take steadfast and supportive positions on the Palestinian cause.
The foundation also expressed its gratitude to the thousands of volunteers and field workers who helped prepare and organize the convoys, reaffirming that civil society in Egypt has become a powerful force in supporting nations during times of crisis.

South Africa Urges Global Recognition of Palestine, Condemns Gaza Genocide
South Africa has called on the international community to formally recognise the State of Palestine and take urgent action to stop what it describes as genocide being carried out by Israel in the Gaza Strip. Speaking on Tuesday, South African Minister of International Relations and Cooperation Ronald Lamola said growing outrage among Israel's allies over the situation in Gaza signals that the world is edging closer to halting the ongoing atrocities. 'We urge more countries around the world to recognise the State of Palestine,' Lamola said, adding that such moves would increase pressure on Israel to end its crimes against the Palestinian people. South Africa has been a leading voice in opposing Israel's war on Gaza and in December 2023 filed a landmark case against Israel at the International Court of Justice (ICJ), accusing it of committing acts of genocide. The move catalyzed a global response, with countries such as Spain, Bolivia, Colombia, Mexico, Turkey, Chile, and Libya voicing stronger support for the Palestinian cause. More recently, the leaders of France, the UK, and Canada have indicated plans to formally recognise Palestine in September, calling on others to follow suit. According to the Gaza Health Ministry, over 60,000 Palestinians have been killed since the beginning of the war, while 2.4 million people now face imminent famine, as warned by humanitarian agencies. Lamola warned that signs of famine are already visible, stating, 'We warned the world this would happen. If action had been taken earlier, the humanitarian catastrophe could have been avoided.' Diplomatic Strain with Washington Lamola also revealed that diplomatic relations between South Africa and the United States have reached a new low, accusing Washington of interfering in the country's internal affairs. Tensions have risen following South Africa's ICJ case against Israel, as well as controversial remarks by former U.S. President Donald Trump, who claimed that white South Africans face racial discrimination. The Trump administration has imposed 30% tariffs on South African exports, the highest such rate for any Sub-Saharan African country, with the measures expected to take effect on Friday. Despite the tension, Lamola said Pretoria welcomes the presence of President Trump at the upcoming G20 Summit, scheduled to take place in South Africa this November—although Trump had earlier signalled he may skip the event. The latest statements from Pretoria reflect South Africa's continued leadership in global human rights diplomacy and its increasingly assertive role in reshaping the international response to the war in Gaza.

Nine Chinese, Turkish firms invest $41.6m in Ismailia Free Zone, creating 16,000 jobs
The Ismailia Free Zone has secured new investments from nine Chinese and Turkish companies, with a combined value of $41.6m. The projects cover textiles, ready-made garments, protective and sportswear, and the manufacture of spare parts for heating and plumbing equipment. Together, they are expected to generate approximately 16,000 direct jobs. Hossam Heiba, CEO of the General Authority for Investment and Free Zones (GAFI), said the inflow of new investments reflects the success of the Egyptian government's efforts to create a competitive, investor-friendly environment that fosters manufacturing opportunities and provides employment for thousands of workers. He noted that the new textile and garment projects will export 100% of their output, in line with the Ministry of Investment and Foreign Trade's 'Investment for Export' strategy. Production at the new factories is scheduled to begin in 2026. Ayman Saleh, Head of the General Free Zone in Ismailia, reported that in 2024 the zone completed infrastructure development on 60 feddans designated for industrial use and allocated to investors. He added that work is under way to develop an additional 70 feddans in 2025 to meet strong demand for industrial investment in Egypt, particularly in the Suez Canal region. Representatives of the Chinese and Turkish companies praised the streamlined investment procedures and favourable climate offered by GAFI. They also announced plans to relocate substantial portions of their production operations to Egypt, supporting GAFI's strategy to position the country as a leading hub for export and re-export in the Middle East. The investors highlighted Egypt's strategic advantage in having preferential access to most major global markets through its extensive network of trade agreements.
