34 Soldiers Killed, 14 Injured in Militant Attack in Niger
Israa Farhan At least 34 Nigerien soldiers were killed and 14 others injured in a large-scale militant attack on the town of Banibangou, located in western Niger near the border with Mali, according to an official government statement. The assault, which took place on Wednesday, was reportedly carried out by hundreds of armed militants who used dozens of vehicles and motorbikes to launch a coordinated strike on the military forces stationed in the area. Government sources confirmed that dozens of the attackers were also killed in the confrontation, though no exact number was provided. The intensity and scale of the operation have raised serious concerns about the security situation along Niger's volatile border with Mali, a region frequently targeted by extremist groups linked to al-Qaeda and ISIS. The latest attack marks one of the deadliest incidents for Niger's military this year, highlighting the persistent threat posed by armed insurgent groups operating in the Sahel region. Authorities have not yet confirmed which group was responsible, but investigations are ongoing. Niger remains a frontline state in the battle against jihadist violence in West Africa. Despite regional and international efforts to stabilize the area, deadly attacks against military and civilian targets continue to occur with alarming frequency. 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

Iranian Missile Falls Near Microsoft Office in Israel
Taarek Refaat Israeli media reported that an Iranian missile fell in the city of Be'er Sheva, injuring 18 people, according to initial reports. The footage showed a Microsoft building, reflecting Tehran's repeated statements about targeting scientific and intelligence centers and headquarters affiliated with or working for the Israeli military. Videos circulated on social media showing fires in the areas where the rockets landed, including Beersheba, Nevatim, and Rahat, in addition to the burning of several cars parked in the area. An Israeli military spokesperson stated: "The IDF identified missile launches from Iran toward Israel a short while ago, and defense systems are working to intercept the threat. Citizens should head to protected areas and remain there until further notice." After assessing the situation, the Israeli Home Front Command announced that it was permissible to leave protected areas, noting that search and rescue units were operating at the site of the missile strike, stressing the need for the public to continue following security instructions. In this context, the Israeli military announced, in the early hours of Friday morning, that it had intercepted three Iranian drones en route to Israeli territory, amid escalating military tensions between the two sides. In contrast, former commander of the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps Mohsen Rezaei confirmed that Iran has so far launched more than 400 missiles and 600 drones toward Israel as part of ongoing military operations. Rezaei added, in statements reported by Iranian media, that his country has used less than 30% of its actual military capabilities, while the potential use rate is only about 5%. Rezaei revealed the existence of new missile capabilities that will be announced soon, noting that naval and land capabilities have not yet been used in the confrontation. He explained that what has been achieved so far reflects a limited portion of Iran's military power, which could pave the way for further escalation if the clashes continue. 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 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

Iranian Missiles Hit Israel's Stock Exchange Building
Taarek Refaat An Iranian missile strike hit the Israeli Stock Exchange on Thursday, injuring at least 15 people, including two in critical condition, according to Israel's national emergency medical service. The attack marks a sharp escalation in the ongoing conflict between Iran and Israel. Preliminary figures from Israeli health authorities later revised the number of wounded to at least 50, following what officials described as a "massive and coordinated missile barrage" across multiple Israeli cities. Citing Iranian sources, The Economic Times reported that the strike also targeted an Israeli army command center, an intelligence facility, and a military coordination hub. The full extent of the damage is still being assessed. In a related development, Soroka Medical Center in Be'er Sheva reportedly halted admissions after sustaining structural damage from an Iranian missile, according to Israeli media outlets. The attack was met with immediate retaliation. The Israeli Air Force launched a pre-dawn offensive, deploying 40 fighter jets in a coordinated strike on several high-value targets across Iran, including the Arak heavy water reactor, a known component of Iran's nuclear infrastructure. The Iranian and Israeli governments have yet to release full casualty figures or comprehensive damage assessments, but analysts warn that the reciprocal strikes are pushing the region toward a wider military confrontation with potentially global implications. 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 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
