๐ช๐ฌ๐ฎ๐ฑ Egyptian President Abdel Fattah el-Sisi responds to Israeli Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrichโs remarks that Egypt would not go to war for fear of losing Sinai: โWho said we wanted to go to war? We have no agenda against anyone. We fought to get our land back, and we did. Thatโs settled. Are you still gripped by the same paranoia from 60 years ago? Do you still think we want your land? My only goal is to protect my country, its borders and its territory. As long as we respect each otherโs territory, Sinai is ours and our borders are secure, we have no hidden agenda against anyone.โ

๐ช๐ฌ๐ธ๐ฆ Egyptian President Abdel Fattah el-Sisi called on parliament Saturday to convene an emergency session to authorize military intervention in defense of Saudi Arabia if the kingdom requests it. Speaking at a graduation ceremony for military academy and college cadets, Sisi said: โI call on parliament to hold an emergency session to authorize us to intervene in Saudi Arabiaโs defense if asked to do so.โ โSuch action requires parliamentary approval, and I hope parliament will convene an emergency session to grant that authorization,โ he added. โWe are not seeking to attack or wage war. Our aim is solely to defend.โ Sisi reaffirmed Egyptโs commitment to defending the Gulf states, saying: โWe stand firmly behind our Gulf brothers and fully support protecting and defending their territory. Egypt will take whatever action is necessary to protect and defend Saudi Arabia.โ

Iโll ask again: what were these Sudanese nationals doing inside Egyptโs borders? Illegal mining involving organised criminal groups. What happened? Egypt launched a large-scale operation against illegal gold miners and gangs involved in arms smuggling, drug trafficking and human trafficking. This campaign covers Egyptโs entire Eastern Desert, not just the south. The Sudanese nationals killed in the airstrikes while illegally mining for gold were actually inside Egyptian territory. Yes, inside the HalaibโShalateen Triangle, which is under Egyptian control. That is the reality on the ground. I donโt understand why some people seem so disconnected from it. Egypt warned them beforehand to evacuate the area, making clear that anyone who stayed would be putting their life at risk. The airstrikes followed those warnings, which are documented in the leaflets dropped over the area. Do you know what happened when the Egyptian military previously let them operate or dealt with them with considerable restraint? They killed the chief of staff of Egyptโs Border Guard forces, along with several other EAF officers and soldiers. That is when Egypt changed its approach. So why engage in illegal activities inside Egyptโs borders in the first place?

Saudi Aramco officially acknowledged that an administrative building in Dhahran, likely within its main headquarters, was hit, causing a small fire.

๐ธ๐พ๐น๐ท๐ฎ๐ฑ Eight Israeli airstrikes hit Abu al-Duhur Airbase in northwestern Syria early Tuesday, targeting the runway and storage facilities. Located around 70 km from the Turkish border, the air base has seen significant activity since May with satellite images show several new structures being built, likely aircraft hangars or warehouses, alongside ongoing rehabilitation of the runway and taxiways. The activity suggests Syria was preparing to bring the base back into service, potentially with Turkish support or as part of a future Turkish deployment.

๐ช๐ฌ๐ฎ๐ฑ Egyptian President Abdel Fattah el-Sisi said he had repeatedly told Benjamin Netanyahu - ืื ืืืื ื ืชื ืืื during their meetings since 2013 that establishing a Palestinian state would bring lasting stability for everyone and pave the way for Israelโs full integration into the region, but Netanyahu consistently rejected the idea. โUltimately, he is responsible for his country, and he knows full well that Egypt poses no threat,โ Sisi said. Sisi also recalled: โNetanyahu once asked me directly, โWhy are you arming yourself? Why are you buying weapons?โ I told him, โI have never viewed Israelโs military strength as a threat to Egypt, and I think you should view Egyptโs military strength the same way. We live in a volatile region, and we need to be strong to preserve peace with Israel and across the region.โ

Just noticed that the U.S. has recently evacuated many, possibly most, of its C-130 transport aircraft, UH-60 Black Hawks and AH-64 Apache gunships from King Abdullah II Air Base in Jordan, despite the base never being targeted by Iran and housing a large portion of U.S. forces.
