Eilat Port to shut down over tax debts amid Houthi threat: Reports
Eilat Port is set to shut down on Sunday after the Eilat Municipality seized its bank accounts due to unpaid municipal taxes exceeding NIS 600,000, Globes reported. The port, which has been operating at limited capacity since the start of the genocide in Gaza and threats to Red Sea shipping by the Houthis, now faces a complete halt in activity. The shutdown is expected to impact the 'Israeli' Navy, which has used the port since the genocide began, as well as operations of the Europe Asia Pipeline Company (EAPC) and the export of potash from ICL's Dead Sea Works. While port officials initially denied plans to close, a letter from the National Emergency Authority obtained by Globes confirmed the details, citing financial debts and the seizure of all bank accounts. The Shipping and Ports Authority has notified that the port will cease all activity, including the use of tugboats and logistical support services. The Ministry of Transport has called an emergency meeting with relevant stakeholders in an effort to prevent the closure. Eilat Port, operated by the Nakash brothers since 2012, once handled 50 percent of all vehicle imports into Israel. However, since the war began, port revenue has plummeted, dropping from NIS 212 million in 2023 to just NIS 42 million in 2024. Only six ships have docked there in the first half of 2025. Despite prior financial assistance from the government, including deferred fees and a state-backed loan guarantee, officials are now critical of the port's failure to settle its debts with the municipality. The government has argued that, given the port's privatized status and its decade of profits, the owners must now bear the financial burden.

Superman cast salary revealed: David Corenswet among lowest-paid superheroes, Nicholas Hoult walks away with mega paycheck
David Corenswet's earnings as Superman fall short by today's industry standards, when compared to what other Marvel and DC actors made in their first superhero roles. According to Puck News, it's Nicholas Hoult, who plays Lex Luthor in director James Gunn's Superman film, who is leading the pack with the highest salary of anyone in the cast. Made on a reported budget $225 million budget, Gunn's DC reboot has already raked in $22.5 million from box office previews. Also read: Superman movie review: James Gunn delivers Interstellar-level show-and-tell universe with a cute David Corenswet Hoult, who's already worked in the X-Men franchise, reportedly bagged $1.25 million more than Corenswet. As the main villain in Superman, he was paid $2 million, while David Corenswet (Superman) and Rachel Brosnahan (Lois Lane) each earned $750,000. But this isn't the first time a villain has out-earned a superhero. Christopher Reeve was paid $250,000 for the 1978 Superman movie. His Lex Luthor, Gene Hackman, took home $2 million. And Hoult's resume and longer career in Hollywood (two Golden Globe nominations, an Emmy nod) counts. Corenswet, on the other hand, is still new. Brosnahan, meanwhile, comes with an Emmy, two Globes for The Marvelous Mrs Maisel, and a solid background of indie and studio work. She also voiced one of the leads in Spies in Disguise alongside Will Smith and Tom Holland. Corenswet's biggest credits include The Politician and Hollywood, plus recent roles in Twisters and The Greatest Hits. If you stack Corenswet's paycheck next to others, Robert Downey Jr. was paid $500K for Iron Man in 2008, almost two decades ago. His fees skyrocketed as Marvel blew up. In 2011, Chris Evans got $300K for Captain America. Chris Hemsworth was paid just $150K for Thor the same year. Scarlett Johansson earned low seven-figures for Black Widow. On the DC side, Henry Cavill was paid $300K for Man of Steel (2013), same with Gal Gadot for Wonder Woman. Ben Affleck, though, thanks to his A-list status, reportedly made between $10–20 million for his Batman debut. Also read: Superman ending explained: What it means for new DCU movies and Peacemaker season 2 So, Corenswet isn't exactly underpaid by superhero debut standards. In fact, his $750K is higher than what Cavill, Evans, or Hemsworth took home for their first caped gigs. But if you look at more recent first-time leads like Brie Larson (Captain Marvel) or Ezra Miller (The Flash), who were paid $5 million and $3 million, respectively, then $750K starts to look pretty modest according to the current standard, especially for the guy carrying the weight of DC's reboot. Earlier, while speaking to CNN, Gunn said he's proud of finding breakout stars. 'I think I'm really good at finding people who become huge stars,' Gunn said. 'I think David Corenswet is the biggest movie star in the world—and people don't know it yet. That's exactly what I said about Chris Pratt early on, too. There are very, very few people who've got the acting chops, the comedy timing, and happen to be ridiculously handsome all at once.'

Israel Raises Fuel Prices following War with Iran
Taarek Refaat The Israeli Ministry of Energy and Infrastructure announced on Sunday a modest hike in government-regulated gasoline prices, citing mounting economic pressure following the recent 12-day conflict with Iran. Starting at midnight on Monday, the price of 95-octane gasoline at fuel stations across Israel will increase by 0.01 Israeli shekels per liter, bringing the total to 7.15 shekels ($2.12) per liter. This marks the second consecutive monthly increase, as reported in an official ministry statement. According to Globes, a leading Israeli financial newspaper, the latest price adjustment reflects not only fluctuations in oil prices and currency exchange rates, but also the economic aftermath of the military confrontation with Iran. Unlike past oil shocks that triggered sharp surges in global barrel prices, the global oil market reacted with relative moderation this time, the report noted. However, the cumulative financial burden of military operations and heightened security costs is increasingly influencing domestic pricing structures. Traditionally, fuel prices in Israel are calculated at the end of each month based on the average oil prices in the Mediterranean market and the exchange rate between the shekel and the U.S. dollar—currently 3.38 shekels to the dollar. The final price also includes marketing fees, excise tax, and value-added tax (VAT). Inflation Pressures Mount The economic impact of the Iran-Israel conflict continues to ripple through the Israeli economy. Following the outbreak of war in Gaza earlier this year, the Israeli government raised VAT from 17% to 18%, contributing to an upward trend in consumer prices and inflation. 'The inflation crisis is not over,' said Danny Yardeni, Head of Nostro Management at Bank Leumi. 'There's pressure on rents due to the war, and not all airlines have resumed operations. But I believe the end of the crisis has reduced some of the uncertainty.' Yardeni added that the private consumption sector has weakened, with many businesses temporarily closed and households spending less amid the state of emergency. The government, for its part, has been forced to allocate significant funds for compensation, both for homeowners affected by missile strikes and for businesses disrupted during the hostilities. While the immediate military conflict has subsided, economic aftershocks continue, and experts warn that fuel and consumer prices may remain volatile in the coming months, particularly if regional tensions reignite or if the global energy market shifts abruptly. 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 News China Launches Largest Ever Aircraft Carrier Sports Former Al Zamalek Player Ibrahim Shika Passes away after Long Battle with Cancer Videos & Features Tragedy Overshadows MC Alger Championship Celebration: One Fan Dead, 11 Injured After Stadium Fall 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

Ike Barinholtz on That Chaotic ‘The Studio' Golden Globes Episode, Creating ‘Running Point' Despite His Bulls Fandom, and How He Won Both ‘Jeopardy!' and ‘Millionaire'
Ike Barinholtz is ready for you to start screaming 'Sal Saperstein!' at him in the streets. That's his character's name on Apple TV+'s Hollywood satire 'The Studio,' and in Episode 8, Sal becomes a bit of a running joke in the middle of the Golden Globes. As the faux version of that kudofest proceeds, a running joke erupts where everyone on stage thanks 'Sal Saperstein,' even though they don't know who the hell he is. 'I'm ready for it. It's better than some of the other things they yell at me now,' Barinholtz tells Variety's Awards Circuit Podcast, 'so I'll take 'Sal Saperstein!,' that's for sure.' More from Variety 'Andor' Season 2 Emmy Submissions Revealed in 23 Categories Including Directing, Writing and Four Guest Stars (EXCLUSIVE) Seth Rogen Sends Message to Daniel Day-Lewis to Guest Star on 'The Studio' Season 2: 'Please Consider a Zoom With Us, We'll Pitch You a Good Idea' How Oners Created Tension in 'Severance,' 'Adolescence' and 'The Studio': 'We Tried To Keep the Audiences Guessing' They might not know Sal Saperstein, but in this, the Year of Ike Barinholtz, they're sure getting a lot of the real-life comedic actor and writer. Besides starring opposite Seth Rogen in 'The Studio,' Barinholtz is one of the creators — along with David Stassen, Mindy Kaling and Elaine Ko — behind the hit Netflix comedy 'Running Point,' which stars Kate Hudson as the president of a basketball team (based on Los Angeles Lakers head Jeanie Buss, who's involved in the show too). Barinholtz recently spoke with the podcast to talk about 'The Studio,' 'Running Point,' his winning streaks on 'Jeopardy' and 'Who Wants to Be a Millionaire,' and his dad's surprising second career as an actor. Also on this episode, the Awards Circuit Roundtable dissects Clayton Davis' piece about ten changes the TV Academy should make to the Emmy categories. Listen below! The rise of Sal Saperstein on 'The Studio' takes place in what is quite a chaotic — and pretty accurate — take on the Globes ceremony, filled with celebrity cameos. 'It was crazy shooting that episode because we shot it at night at the Beverly Hilton, where they have the Globes,' he says. 'And they had it packed with extras. It really felt like an award show. I was so focused on my lines and the work that you didn't even really check around. You would just be doing the scene and all of a sudden be like, 'oh damn, there's Jean Smart on stage. Oh my god, there's Aaron Sorkin.' It was a crazy fever dream. That episode was just really fun to shoot.' Barinholtz's Sal is perhaps the character who enjoys themself the most on 'The Studio.' As Rogen's studio boss, Matt Remick, sweats bullets, Sal is happily snorting cocaine — while still getting the job done. Sal had wanted Matt's job — but when he realizes how awful it really is to be the boss, he's fine with being the No. 2. 'I think there's a version of the show where he doesn't get it and tries to angle for it throughout the season, and plots against him,' Barinholtz says. 'But I think he in the moment realizes, 'hey, my buddy who loves me has got the job, and I'm gonna do whatever it takes to stay.' I think he's a real survivor. I think he's the kind of guy who he was probably very nervous in 2018 and 2020 that someone was going to tell a story about something he said on a film set, and he was going to have to move out of LA!' 'The Studio' has been the talk of real Hollywood for obvious reasons. 'A friend of mine who's a studio head right now is like, 'thanks for making my biography. I love being stressed out at work all day and then watching your show and just feeling more stress,'' Barinholtz says. 'But I think it's good that a lot of people relate to it. I've had friends who are not in the industry at all tell me like, 'man, I was so uncomfortable during that episode.' And that was one thing that I was happy to hear from people is it's not just people in the business who love it. For the people in the business, it's like candy for us, it's a show about us.' Meanwhile, with 'Running Point,' the Chicago-bred Barinholtz wants to make it clear that he is still a Bulls fan first and foremost. (As is Stassen, who grew up pals with Barinholtz.) 'But I always did have like an affinity towards the Lakers,' he says. 'I loved Magic Johnson. I've been out here 25 years, and I don't think it's healthy to not be a fan of the team in the city in which you live. I think it can make you kind of misanthropic. When I got here, Kobe and Shaq were here, and I love watching them. My kids are Laker fans, so that really seals the deal. And just going to Lakers game is just so much fun.' Barinholtz has even become pals with the Lakers' Kurt Rambis and Linda Rambis; their kid, Jordan, is even a producer on 'Running Point.' 'It's wild, I get to bring my kids to the game, and they talk to Jeanie and see the players sometimes. It's an amazing organization, because it's a true family business. Jeanie really gave us incredible access. When we were writing the first season, she let us come to the training facility out in El Segundo, come to the games and watch her. I think you can tell a lot about a person by the way their employees react to them and treat them. And everyone she interacts with just loves her. It's just a just good vibes over there.' So what's the deal with these string of TV game show wins? Barinholtz won the first primetime season of 'Celebrity Jeopardy!' and was a semifinalist in its Tournament of Champions. He and his father Alan won the top $1 million prize on 'Who Wants to Be a Millionaire' last year. 'I love trivia,' he says. 'We grew up in a 'Jeopardy!' house, and my parents would play Trivial Pursuit. Child of the 80s! In high school, Dave Stassen and I were on our high school quiz bowl team.' Of course, despite those 'Celebrity Jeopardy!' and 'Millionaire' wins, he's still thinking about that Tournament of Champions 'Jeopardy!' loss. 'I made it to the semifinals, and the final question was one of two things, and I should have guessed the other one,' he says. 'I think about it like twice a week. I really do/ I'll be on the treadmill and be like, 'damn it, why did I say 'Spartans'? That's not the one!'
