Street slaughter banned in Cairo, fines up to LE10,000 for violators
Cairo Governor Ibrahim Saber announced on Monday that environmental citations will be issued to individuals who slaughter sacrificial animals in the street and leave behind waste and blood. The fine amount will vary based on the extent of the violation, he said, potentially reaching up to LE 10,000. The governor also emphasized stricter oversight to ensure no slaughtering occurs outside designated abattoirs. This measure aims to protect the environment, public health, and general cleanliness, as well as to ensure meat safety. All government abattoirs in Cairo will be open throughout the Eid holidays to offer free slaughtering services to citizens. These complimentary services include pre-slaughter animal inspection, meat inspection, temporary holdings until slaughter and preparation are complete, and designated parking areas. Furthermore, Saber prohibited setting up any makeshift stalls for displaying live animals on public roads, whether by citizens or butcher shops, to prevent traffic obstruction. He urged the importance of promptly and decisively addressing violators and taking necessary legal action. He confirmed that all abattoirs under the directorate will operate 24 hours a day during the Eid period. The Governor also directed the Cairo Cleaning, Beautification, and Illumination Authority to immediately remove slaughter waste from the streets to safeguard the environment and public health, and issue the necessary environmental pollution reports.

Gold Coast thrower Peter ‘Cotti' Cottrell ready to axe up the competition on world stage
A random outing with mates is now taking Peter 'Cotti' Cottrell halfway across the world — from Queensland to the World Axe Throwing Championships in Toronto, Canada. The Gold Coast local first picked up an axe in 2017 at Lumber Punks, expecting a bit of fun and maybe a few splinters. Know the news with the 7NEWS app: Download today Instead, he found a sport — and a community — that stuck. Now, known in the lanes as Scurvy Dog, he's officially qualified to represent Australia at the 2025 International Axe Throwing Championship (IATC) this June, competing for the prestigious Wilson Cup. 'After years of dedication, countless hours of practice, and travelling across Australia to compete, this is a dream come true,' Cotti said. The real prize: Community, connection, and clutch moments For Cotti, the axe is just the tool — but the hook was immediate. While the satisfying 'thunk' of steel hitting timber is certainly a draw, he believes there's something deeper to the sport. The reason he's still throwing axes nearly eight years after his first session isn't about trophies, it's about the people. 'Everyone can throw axes … It can be a social night, a competitive outlet, a way to de-stress after work, or just something new,' he said. 'It really is for everyone.' And he means everyone. The axe-throwing community is 'the most diverse and welcoming' he's ever been part of. 'It really is a sense of community, belonging and acceptance,' Cotti said. From tradies to teachers, uni students to retirees, the appeal seems to be universal. 'One throw and you're either hooked, or at least feeling a little better than you did five minutes ago,' Cotti said. 'It's got a nice entry level, anyone can stick an axe, but to get consistent? 'That's where the challenge is. 'That's where it gets interesting.' Cotti and Saber make a cutting-edge duo One person who has been pivotal in Cotti's journey is his partner, Saber, who has also become a standout in the Australian axe-throwing scene. 'Saber is a gun thrower, winning multiple events including the first-ever women's tournament in Australia,' said Cotti, proudly talking about his partner. The couple now competes in doubles, travels to as many competitions as they can, and will be teaming up again for the International Championship in Toronto. Saber has also helped grow the sport locally by running the cheekily named Big S.H.I.T. (Saber Hosts Impromptu Tournament), which has already seen three successful events. Cotti attributes the strength of Australia's axe-throwing scene — particularly in Queensland — to its grassroots energy, where people come together to grow the sport from the ground up. 'A place so welcoming and warm is bound to grow,' he said. All of it, he adds, comes with the undeniable thrill of hitting a bullseye. 'Your first bullseye or clutch, your first perfect round and then perfect match, your first league win … as well as sharing in others' achievements too.' Cotti and Saber's relationship is grounded not just in their shared love for the sport, but in the way they challenge each other through friendly competition. 'We push each other to improve our game whilst supporting each other,' Cotti explained. 'It's always fun when we have matches against each other.' They push each other to hit the mark Cotti to make his international mark While the qualification for the World Axe Throwing Championships in Canada is locked in, the travel budget … isn't. He's launched a fundraiser to help cover the costs of flights, accommodation, and event fees, and is calling on fans, friends, and fellow throwers to pitch in if they can. 'This isn't just about competing; it's about representing our community on a global stage … and showing what Aussie axe throwers are all about,' Cotti said. 'Even just sharing the fundraiser means a lot. 'Every little bit helps get me one step closer.' The IATC runs from June 11–16 in Canada, and Cotti will be throwing alongside 255 of the world's best. 'I'm excited to be making my first trip to the birthplace of urban axe throwing.' But no matter how the chips fall, he's already nailed the spirit of the sport. 'At any level, the most important thing is that you're having fun with it.'

Honkai Star Rail Archer and Saber playstyle revealed
The anticipated Fate/Stay Night crossover for Honkai: Star Rail is getting the fever pitch with fresh leaks seemingly revealing the gameplay mechanics of the two iconic characters now gracing the sci-fi RPG, Saber and Archer. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now With Version 3.4 fast coming up, HoYoverse has exciting plans to update things around and bring Fate's crowning Servants to Star Rail for the biggest ever collaboration. Let us find out how these legendary warriors will be playing and what makes their kits tick. Archer: Focused on Strategic Skill Point Management Star Rail is probably going to be that of a pure DPS. As a Hunt Path and Quantum element character, Archer is supposed to have a playstyle with Skill Points (SP) management at its center as a means to maximize his damage output. This ever so rewarding dynamic combat approach will challenge players to time certain attacks and abilities to get the most out of Archer. Skill-Point Consumption: Archer's abilities will have to consume and generate SP in a manner that benefits his damage output the most. This means players shall have to strategically think ahead and manage their resources. Archer's abilities will have to consume and generate SP in a manner that benefits his damage output the most. This means players shall have to strategically think ahead and manage their resources. Quantum Element Advantage: With his Quantum affinity, it's possible for Archer to nail some significant debuffs, especially when he synergizes them with other elements in Star Rail. He could be involved in chaining Quantum debuffs, or he might be augmenting his own damage. Excalibur Spammer Saber, DHIL Upgrade Archer and Yae EXPY! FREE Lightcone for Archer! HSR Leaks The emphasis on SP turns Archer into a high-skill ceiling character. He is not a character that will just spam his abilities; the players need to be on top of his SP usage, making each action count. Architecture can be rather thrilling for those that enjoy strategic computation. Saber: A Team Player with Unique Synergy While Archer's focus is individual damage, Saber is more of a team-centric character that takes advantage of synergies arising from her abilities and those of her allies. Being a Wind Destruction unit, Saber supposedly supports her team members while dealing heavy damage through enhanced skills. Updated Skill Activation : One of the core aspects of Saber's kit involves her enhancing her own skills whenever her allies use their ultimate. This ensures she works excellently in tandem with teammates and becomes quite central in coordinated attacks as all parties release their various forms of full power, with Saber adding to the chaos through a barrage of her own Wind-based damage. : One of the core aspects of Saber's kit involves her enhancing her own skills whenever her allies use their ultimate.

KIYG 2025: Aisangfa Gogoi creates weightlifting record; Maharashtra sweep yogasana medals on Day 8
Assam's Aisangfa Gogoi scripted a new National Youth Record for total lifts on her way to gold in the girls 55kg class weightlifting competition in the Khelo India Youth Games 2025 Bihar at the Rajgir Sports Complex on Sunday. She raised the National Youth Record to 183kg, breaking the mark set by Mina Santa in Fiji last year. Winning Assam's sixth gold medal, Aisingfa Gogoi helped the State break into the top 10 in the medal table, with two silver and two bronze medals as well. It did not take long for Maharashtra to demonstrate its strength as the spring of Yogasana sport. Its athletes claimed both gold and silver in the boys and girls rhythmic pairs competitions. Along with Yash Khandagale's 61kg class weightlifting gold, their contributions increased its collection of gold medals to 30 in addition to 24 silver and 25 bronze medals so far. Karnataka remained in the second place ahead of Rajasthan, though the latter gained a gold through Prakriti Sharma in the girls Saber final at the Fencing arena in Rajgir. She beat giant-killer S Tanvi (Karnataka) who shocked the top ranked Pangambam Ambika Devi (Manipur) in the semifinals. Only the top three teams have claimed 10 gold medals or more. Madhya Pradesh stayed in fourth spot. Haryana's Sachin showcased his skills with the Foil to win a crucial gold for his State and help it rise above Tamil Nadu to the sixth spot on the table with seven gold, six silver and 16 bronze. However, Punjab kept its nose ahead of its neighbour, thanks to Sunil Singh's gold in the boys 61kg weightlifting competition in Rajgir. Punjab has won seven gold and 10 silver and bronze each. Bihar, which has enjoyed a good run in the Games, added a seventh sport in which its athletes have won medals. Bihar's Yogasana artists ensured that the home State would gain at least one medal on Sunday. They joined their team-mates from Rugby, Sepak Takraw, Cycling, Gatka, Judo and Shooting in contributing to the home State's growing tally. Saransh Kumar and Abhishek Kumar were unable to match the top two Maharashtra pairs but topped the race for the Yogsana boys Rhythmic Pair bronze medal. Bihar now has 20 medals, including three gold, eight silver and 9 bronze. It thus became the eighth State to have collected 20 or more medals thus far. There as a surprise in store when the first Kalaripayattu medals were decided today, the Chhattisgarh pair of Arjun Kumar Chandra and Anant Swarnkar claiming the boys Long Staff Fight gold from the Delhi combine of AM Aaron and Aadinath KB. The Kerala pair of Abhinand KP and Adarsh KS was left to bronze medal place on the podium with Karnataka's Chandramouli R and Suhas R Ramapur. However, the Dhalana KS provided the balm for the hurting Kerala squad with a victory in the girls Chuvadukal final against Larisha Sharma (Karnataka). In the Weightlifting arena, it was clear the contest for the girls 55kg gold would be among Mina Santa (Odisha), Karangi Hemasri (Andhra Pradesh) and Aisangfa Gogoi, who had finished in that order in the National Youth Championships in Nagorta, Himachal Pradesh. They would have been relieved that Koyel Bar, who won a silver medal in the Asian Youth Championships in Doha in December last, was not entered. With the Andhra Pradesh girl not finding her form and settling for third place, it boiled down to a tough contest between Mina Santa and Aisangfa Gogoi. The Assam girl, who trains at the SAI National Centre of Excellence in Lucknow wound herself up to deliver a surprise. She opened up a 1kg lead after the Snatch lifts but despite some pressure applied by Mina Santu's entry at a higher weight in clean and jerk, she was able to run out comfortable winner. The Athletics and Wrestling competitions begin tomorrow and, together with Boxing that has reached the quarterfinal stage will see a hectic spurt in the medal charts as the last four days of exhilarating competition remain in the Khelo India Youth Games 2025 Bihar.
