Iran Fired Estimated 10 Missiles at Israel in Latest Strike
Ahmed Emam
Iran is estimated to have launched around 10 missiles at Israel during its most recent attack, according to a report by Israel's public broadcaster, amid escalating tensions between the two regional adversaries.
The assessment, reported by Kan (Israeli Public Broadcasting Corporation) and cited by regional media outlets, comes as Israeli defense officials continue to evaluate the scale and impact of the Iranian strike. No official statement has yet been issued by the Israeli military regarding the precise number of missiles or the extent of the damage.
The missile barrage marks the latest escalation in a volatile exchange of hostilities between Tehran and Tel Aviv, following weeks of military confrontations and heightened rhetoric. The Israeli government has vowed to respond to any aggression with 'full force,' while Iran has warned of further retaliation if its territory or interests are attacked.
Security analysts say the latest exchange reflects a dangerous deepening of the conflict, with the potential to draw in other regional actors if diplomatic efforts fail to deescalate the situation.

Leaders' Breakfast in Malabo: Africa discusses its economic integration and regional mobility
Yara Sameh The African continent turns its attention to Equatorial Guinea. On Sunday, July 13, under the patronage of H.E. Teodoro Obiang Nguema Mbasogo, the Malabo Leaders' Breakfast will be held, a high-level meeting also organised by the Africa Prosperity Network (APN) and Invest Equatorial Guinea, in collaboration with the Secretariat of the African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA). The event, which precedes the 7th African Union Mid-Year Coordination Meeting, will bring together Heads of State, AU Commissioners, leaders of the Regional Economic Communities (RECs), global financial leaders, and strategic stakeholders from the continent, with a common goal: to break down the barriers that impede the free movement of people, goods, and services in Africa. A clear agenda: connecting Africa from Africa The main theme of the breakfast will be "Financing and facilitating the movement of people, goods, and services in Africa," seeking to generate real proposals to accelerate continental integration. Under the theme "Financing and Facilitating the Movement of People, Goods, and Services Across Africa," the event will address the challenges that still hinder continental integration, such as insufficient cross-border infrastructure and regulatory restrictions affecting the mobility of people and goods. "Malabo takes us from diagnosis to practice. We will translate commitments into concrete financing and implementation of policies for free movement, starting with the Dollar a Day Fund," said Sidig El Toum, executive director of APN. A simple idea, a continental impact One of the key highlights will be the launch of the Integrated Infrastructure Growth Fund for Africa, an initiative championed by H.E. Dr. Nkosazana Dlamini Zuma during the Africa Prosperity Dialogues 2025, whose leadership of the AU Commission launched Agenda 2063. The proposal invites the African middle class to contribute as little as $1 a day, with the goal of generating more than $20 billion annually to finance roads, digital networks, airports, bridges, and other strategic projects that connect people and markets. With the participation of just 50 million African citizens, the initiative would accelerate key continental connectivity projects. 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 Videos & Features Video: Trending Lifestyle TikToker Valeria Márquez Shot Dead during Live Stream News Shell Unveils Cost-Cutting, LNG Growth Plan Technology 50-Year Soviet Spacecraft 'Kosmos 482' Crashes into Indian Ocean News 3 Killed in Shooting Attack in Thailand

Egypt's UN Envoy: What happens in Gaza stains int'l community
NEW YORK - 18 June 2025: Egypt's Permanent Representative to the United Nations Osama Abdel Khalek Tuesday strongly condemned the ongoing situation in the Gaza Strip, calling it 'a stain on the conscience of the international community' that must be brought to an immediate end. Addressing the UN General Assembly, Abdel Khalek urged member states to remain steadfast in their principled support of the Palestinian cause, emphasizing the importance of establishing an independent Palestinian state with al-Quds (East Jerusalem) as its capital and granting it full membership in the United Nations, describing this as the only path to peace in the region. There is no room for neutrality—silence is complicity, and hesitation in supporting the Palestinian right is betrayal, he said. Voting in favor of any forthcoming resolution aimed at saving civilians in Palestinian territories is a legal obligation and a moral necessity, he added. He also criticized the most recent use of the veto in the UN Security Council, stating it disregarded international responsibility and allowed Israel to persist in its brutal aggression against unarmed civilians in Gaza. He stressed that such repeated actions highlight the urgent need for comprehensive reform of the UNSC—chief among them, addressing the structural flaw in the veto system once and for all. He continued, this latest veto does not change two glaring facts. First, Israel is systematically committing war crimes and crimes against humanity in Gaza, orchestrated by far-right Israeli leadership and top officials—who must be held accountable, he said. Second, there is clear and overwhelming international consensus demanding an immediate end to this unjust war and the protection of the Palestinian people, as reflected by the sweeping support for the resolution adopted on June 12, he added. In his speech before the UNGA, Abdel Khalek said the international community has a legal and moral obligation that cannot be evaded—to reject such use of the veto and to refuse to let it serve as a political or legal cover for the continuation of war. The right of veto does not supersede international law, nor does it rise above human nature that refuses the killing of children and innocent people in Gaza, he added. 'All members of the international community must exert every possible pressure on Israel to stop its aggression, lift the blockade and starvation policies, allow humanitarian aid to enter Gaza without conditions, and implement relevant UN resolutions, including the provisional measures ordered by the International Court of Justice (ICJ).' He called for the development of international humanitarian law terminology to address the crimes committed by Israel in Gaza, saying the Palestinian people have the right to have their suffering recognized and the crimes committed against them acknowledged—crimes that have persisted for decades. The Palestinians are the only people enduring war crimes and unprecedented atrocities broadcast live to the world, with no end in sight, he added. Egypt is committed to its mediation efforts, in cooperation with Qatar and the United States, to reach a permanent ceasefire and end the Israeli blockade on Gaza, he stressed. He noted that this mediation effort does not contradict the role of the United Nations and its bodies in stopping the aggression and saving innocent civilians. In a related context, Egypt's representative condemned the Israeli attacks on Iran, stressing Egypt's rejection of any actions that violate international law, the UN Charter, or the sovereignty and territorial integrity of states. He expressed deep concern over this dangerous escalation, which threatens serious consequences for the security of the Middle East.

IAEA: No Evidence of Systematic Iranian Nuclear Weapons Development
Ahmed Emam The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) has stated that there is no evidence of systematic Iranian activities aimed at developing nuclear weapons, according to a Alqahera News. The announcement comes amid heightened international scrutiny over Iran's nuclear program, particularly in light of ongoing tensions in the Middle East. The IAEA, the United Nations' nuclear watchdog, has long been tasked with monitoring Iran's nuclear facilities and ensuring compliance with international agreements. While the agency has previously expressed concerns about Iran's lack of full transparency and cooperation, this latest assessment suggests that Iran is not currently engaged in any organized effort to weaponize its nuclear capabilities. The statement is likely to impact diplomatic discussions, especially as world powers continue to debate the future of the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), the 2015 nuclear deal from which the United States withdrew in 2018. The IAEA's findings may bolster Tehran's claims that its nuclear program is strictly for peaceful purposes, even as Western countries remain cautious over Iran's uranium enrichment levels and reduced cooperation with inspectors. 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 Videos & Features Video: Trending Lifestyle TikToker Valeria Márquez Shot Dead during Live Stream News Shell Unveils Cost-Cutting, LNG Growth Plan Technology 50-Year Soviet Spacecraft 'Kosmos 482' Crashes into Indian Ocean News 3 Killed in Shooting Attack in Thailand
