Musk Plans Legal Action Against Apple over App Store Practices
Billionaire entrepreneur Elon Musk has announced plans to sue Apple, accusing the tech giant of breaching antitrust regulations in the way it manages app rankings on its App Store.
Musk stated that his artificial intelligence start-up, xAI, intends to take legal measures against Apple, claiming the company's policies make it impossible for AI competitors to overtake OpenAI in the app rankings.
At present, OpenAI's ChatGPT
holds
the top position in the United States iPhone App Store under the category of top free applications. Musk's own AI app, Grok, is ranked fifth, while Google's Gemini chatbot sits at number 57. ChatGPT also leads the rankings on Google Play, according to analytics from Sensor Tower.
Apple has a partnership with OpenAI that integrates ChatGPT into its devices, a move that has further strengthened the chatbot's market dominance. Neither Apple, OpenAI, nor xAI have issued an official response to the allegations.
Musk's forthcoming lawsuit is expected to put renewed focus on competition within the artificial intelligence sector and the role of major tech platforms in shaping the visibility and success of emerging AI tools.

UNRWA: Extreme heat worsens Gaza's already dire situation
Amir haggag The United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees (UNRWA) warned on Thursday of the dire impact of the extreme heat wave on the humanitarian situation in the Gaza Strip, given the limited resources needed to mitigate the heat. UNRWA said in a post on its X platform that "temperatures in Gaza are exceeding 40 degrees Celsius, making an already dire situation even worse." It added that with the scarcity of available water, the risk of dehydration is increasing. It noted that in light of the ongoing Israeli bombardment, the forced displacement of residents, and the limited availability of electricity and fuel, there is no way to mitigate the impact of the extreme heat. The UN agency stressed the urgent need for a ceasefire in the Gaza Strip. 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 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

Germany Spends €80 Mln on Border Controls
Israa Farhan Germany has spent €80.5 million on land border control operations between mid-September 2024 and the end of June 2025, according to figures released by the Federal Ministry of the Interior. The measures, initially introduced as a temporary exception to the Schengen Area's free movement rules, have since been repeatedly extended. The expenditure covers a wide range of costs, including €24 to €29.1 million per quarter for deploying federal police along internal borders. Between April and June 2025 alone, the government paid €8 million for meals and hotel accommodation for police officers, almost €3 million in allowances for working unsociable hours, €2.6 million for administrative and operational resources, and around €2 million for running border checkpoints. Overtime pay represented the largest single expense, amounting to €37.9 million during the period from September 2024 to June 2025. Former Interior Minister Nancy Faeser first imposed the land border checks in September 2024, citing the need to curb irregular migration and combat cross-border crime. Her successor, Alexander Dobrindt, intensified these measures upon taking office in May 2025, announcing further extensions beyond September this year and introducing a policy of turning away asylum seekers directly at the border. Between 8 May and 4 August 2025, federal police refused entry to 493 people who had expressed an intention to seek asylum in Germany. Critics, including opposition figures, have condemned the policy as unlawful and harmful to both travelers and asylum seekers. They argue that it creates traffic congestion in border regions, adds unnecessary burdens for regular cross-border commuters, and results in excessively high costs for the federal government. 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 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

Melania Trump Threatens $1 Bln Suit Against Hunter Biden
Israa Farhan First Lady Melania Trump has warned Hunter Biden, son of former US President Joe Biden, of legal action worth $1 billion over allegations she says are false and defamatory in connection with the late financier Jeffrey Epstein. According to a legal notice published by Fox News, the dispute arose after Hunter Biden released a YouTube video on 5 August titled 'Hunter Biden Returns.' The video reportedly contained assertions linking Melania Trump's introduction to Donald Trump with Jeffrey Epstein. The First Lady's legal team described these claims as categorically false and inherently defamatory. The letter demanded an immediate and comprehensive retraction of the video and any other statements deemed misleading or inflammatory. Failure to comply by the 7 August deadline, the notice stated, would prompt a lawsuit seeking $1 billion in damages. Sources indicate that Hunter Biden did not issue the requested retraction within the specified timeframe, setting the stage for a potentially high-profile legal battle. 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 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
