Dans le grand centre du Caire comme dans les principales villes d'Égypte, près de trois quarts des commerces bénéficiaient encore d'un gel des loyers, une mesure héritée de l'ère Nasser et transmissible de génération en génération. Mais cette exception, instaurée il y a 70 ans, vit ses derniers jours. Depuis début août, une nouvelle loi prévoit de réévaluer progressivement les contrats sur cinq ans pour les locaux commerciaux et sept ans pour les logements. Une perspective qui inquiète de nombreux petits commerçants qui craignent de devoir mettre la clé sous la porte. Avec notre correspondant au Caire, Comme d'habitude, c'est l'effervescence dans la rue commerçante de Soliman Gohar, à deux pas du centre-ville du Caire. Mais Yasser, lui, rumine son inquiétude au fond de son atelier de menuiserie : « Aujourd'hui, je paye cinq livres par mois. Ils disent que dans cinq ans, si le propriétaire ne veut plus de nous, on va devoir partir. Alors que cet atelier est ouvert depuis plus de 50 ans. Ce souk n'a pas d'âge ! » Cinq livres, c'est moins de dix centimes d'euros. Une somme dérisoire dont profitent la plupart des commerçants du coin, comme William, vendeur d'ustensile de cuisine. « 80 % des commerces de cette rue bénéficient des anciens loyers. C'est-à-dire, une somme presque symbolique. Mais avec cette nouvelle loi, il pourrait être multiplié par cinq et tout le monde va mettre la clé sous la porte. Tout va disparaître », s'alarme-t-il. Pour certains experts comme Yahia Shawkat, chercheur en urbanisme, le paysage de certains quartiers va se diversifier avec le temps. « Certains magasins à faible valeur commerciale comme les petits tailleurs, les boutiques de jouets ou les librairies vont certainement être déplacés. Alors que d'autres, comme les restaurants, les cafés ou les pharmacies, qui rapportent plus, pourront eux s'adapter aux loyers du marché », estime-t-il. Mais ce que craint surtout le spécialiste, c'est l'agitation sociale que pourrait engendrer la nouvelle mesure. « L'application de cette loi va être compliquée. Il faut s'attendre à des confrontations publiques entre propriétaires et locataires, des confrontations physiques, qui se décideront à la loi du plus fort », pense Yahia Shawat. Un constat partagé par Mohamed, poissonnier, qui a repris l'échoppe fondée par son père dans les années 1970 : « Cette loi est injuste et contient de nombreuses violations. Presque tous ses articles vont à l'encontre de la Constitution. Dans sept ans, c'est toute l'Égypte qui va descendre dans la rue. » Le gouvernement a déjà promis des solutions de rechange aux commerçants touchés par la loi, sans donner pour le moment plus de détails.

As a teenager in Cairo in the early 1940s, Inji Efflatoun made two great discoveries: art and the Communist Party. Although she was from an elite French-speaking background, Efflatoun chose to “re-Egyptianize” herself, pursue painting and throw herself full-heartedly into anti-imperialist, feminist and leftist agitation. She was eventually arrested during President Nasser's repression of Communists in the early 1960s. It was in prison that she embarked upon the most productive stage of her career as an artist. Today, her prison portraits and the vibrant, luminous paintings of Egyptian rural life she painted after her release are iconic. In this episode we speak to Ahmed Gobba and Avery Gonzales, co-translators of Efflatoun's 1993 memoir, “The Memoir of Inji Efflatoun: From Childhood to Prison.” The memoir is the nucleus of a new book, The Life and Work of Inji Efflatoun, published by SKIRA and edited by Sultan Sooud Al-Qassemi and Suheyla Takesh. It comes out in the US on October 7 and is available to pre-order now. You can view a digitalized collection of Efflatoun's work on the Barjeel Art Foundation's website and read a review of the book in the National by Razmig Bedirian. This episode was produced in collaboration with the Barjeel Art Foundation -- an independent Sharjah-based institution, founded in 2010 by Sultan Sooud Al-Qassemi to preserve, exhibit and research one of the most extensive collections of modern and contemporary art from the Arab World. One of the Barjeel Art Foundation's objectives is developing a public platform to foster critical dialogue around art practices, to convey nuanced Arab histories beyond the borders of culture and geography.

La crisis de Suez de 1956, también conocida como la Guerra del Sinaí, fue el canto del cisne del imperialismo europeo, fortaleció el nacionalismo árabe y consolidó la el mundo bipolar de la guerra fría con Estados Unidos y la Unión Soviética como dos únicas superpotencias. El origen de la crisis hay que ir a buscarlo al canal de Suez, inaugurado en 1869 y arteria vital para el comercio internacional. En 1955 por él pasaba el 50% de todo el petróleo que se consumía en el mundo, pero lo explotaba una compañía anglo-francesa. Los británicos habían controlado Egipto hasta 1922, año en el que, tras la fachada de una independencia nominal, se convirtió en un protectorado de facto. La Revolución de 1952, acaudillada por Gamal Abdel Nasser, abolió la monarquía y promovió el panarabismo para liberar a su país del yugo colonial. Pero no disponía de recursos, así que propuso construir una gran presa en Asuán que permitiese regular el cauce del Nilo y generar electricidad. No podía financiar su construcción y eso le llevó a pedir dinero en Occidente, donde le ofrecieron un préstamo. En paralelo Nasser negoció la compra de armas soviéticas y reconoció a la China popular, lo que alarmó a Estados Unidos que canceló el préstamo para presionarle. Nasser podía agachar la cabeza o elevar la apuesta. Escogió lo segundo. El 26 de julio de 1956, nacionalizó el canal para financiar la presa y reafirmar la soberanía egipcia. Eso era un órdago para el Reino Unido y Francia que dependían del petróleo que transitaba por Suez. Israel, muy afectado por el bloqueo del estrecho de Tirán y los ataques de guerrilleros palestinos desde Gaza, vio en aquello una oportunidad para debilitar a Egipto. Británicos, franceses e israelíes se reunieron en secreto cerca de París y acordaron el protocolo de Sèvres, por el cual se coordinaban para efectuar una operación que consistiría en que Israel se encargase de atacar a Egipto mientras los europeos intervendrían después para proteger el canal. El 29 de octubre Israel lanzó la Operación Kadesh, destruyeron la fuerza aérea egipcia y capturaron Gaza y Sharm el-Sheij. El día 30, el Reino Unido y Francia emitieron un ultimátum exigiendo la retirada de ambos ejércitos de la zona del canal. El 5 de noviembre paracaidistas anglo-franceses tomaron Port Said, pero la resistencia egipcia, que bloqueó el canal hundiendo varios buques, complicaron la operación. Estados Unidos no había sido informado, lo que molestó especialmente a su presidente, Dwight Eisenhower. Enfurecido, obligó a británicos y franceses a retirarse y se encargó personalmente de que una fuerza especial de la ONU se desplegase en el canal. La URSS de Jruschov hizo el resto amenazando al Reino Unido y Francia con un ataque nuclear. Un mes más tarde los europeos abandonaron Egipto con el rabo entre las piernas. La crisis supuso una humillación histórica para las dos grandes potencias del siglo XIX. El primer ministro británico, Anthony Eden, y el francés, Guy Mollet, tuvieron que presentar la renuncia meses después. Nasser se convirtió en el héroe del mundo árabe. Israel salió ganando, ya que se aseguró el acceso al mar Rojo, pero habían quedado sembradas las semillas para guerra de los seis días de 1967.

Suezkrisen är konflikten som såg till att Storbritannien och Frankrike slutligen tappade greppet om sina kolonier i mellanöstern. Storbritannien och Frankrikes regeringar hade, sedan den egyptiske presidenten Gammal Abdel Nasser 1952 tillträde, irriterat sig på Nassers ökade inflytande och destabiliserande politik i mellanöstern.När Nasser beslutade att nationalisera Suezkanalbolaget för att finansiera ett dammbygge längs med Nilen fick dock de båda länderna nog och började planera för en militär intervention, men det skulle inte gå som de tänkt sig.I dagens avsnitt av Militärhistoriepodden diskuterar idéhistorikern Peter Bennesved och professorn i historia Martin Hårdstedt Suezkrisen 1956-1957.Det var inte bara Storbritannien och Frankrike som involverade sig i den här konflikten. På båda sidor fanns supermakterna, som för ovanlighetens skull höll en gemensam linje och stödde Nasser. USA hade under en tid försökt närma sig Egypten och såg sig själva som dekoloniseringenspolitikens fanbärare.Det var således inte självklart att USA skulle stödja sina allierade Storbritannien och Frankrike i deras anspråk i mellanöstern. Sovjetunionen å andra sidan hade under Chrustjovs ledning samtidigt försökt närma sig mellanöstern för att lämna sin tidigare isolationistiska utrikespolitik. I Nasser såg Sovjetunionen en intressant partner som tycktes ha förmågan att pressa bort västerländska intressen i området, och såg då en möjlighet att använda Suezkrisen som hävstång för att hjälpa Nasser i detta.I slutändan var det dock Israel och FN:s agerande som skulle leda till att Storbritannien och Frankrike fick lämna Egypten och Suezkanalen med byxorna nere. Israel hade tagit på sig rollen att starta konflikten genom ett överraskningsanfall mot Sinaihalvön. Storbritannien och Frankrike skulle sedan använda detta anfall som förevändning för en intervention i området riktad mot Suezkanalen. Problemet var bara att Israels krigsmål var att slå ut den egyptiska militära förmågan, men när egypterna lyckades genomföra en snabbreträtt från Sinai och lämnat området åt Israel så såg man från Israels håll ingen anledning att fortsätta konflikten. När FN, under USA:s ledning, klubbade igenom en resolution om vapenvila så accepterade Israel denna.Detta drog undan mattan för den ”intervention” som britter och fransmän förespråkat. Plötsligt stod deras koloniala ambitioner i öppen dager.Krisen, om än kort, fick stor påverkan på framtida utveckling i området. Konflikten mellan Israel och Egypten kom inte till någon lösning, och skulle leda till ytterligare två stora krig under de kommande 20 åren. Storbritannien och Frankrike tappade sin prestige i mellanöstern, och snart vände sig stat efter stat mot sina tidigare styresmän. Sovjetunionen hade lyckats förödmjuka de gamla väststaterna och fick ökat inflytande i området i utbyte. För Frankrike och Israel blev konflikten också en katalysator för deras ambitioner att skaffa kärnvapen.Bild: Rök stiger upp från oljetankar bredvid Suezkanalen som drabbades under den första engelsk-franska attacken mot Port Said, 5 november 1956.

Dopo la Guerra dei sei giorni e la morte di Nasser, i due eventi fondamentali di cui dobbiamo occuparci sono la guerra del Kippur e la nascita dell'OLP. Il Kippur rappresentò la rivincita egiziana dopo l'onta del precedente conflitto, anche se solo l'intervento degli Stati Uniti evitò un altro disastro; questo intervento, voluto da Kissinger, fruttò agli Stati Uniti la riconoscenza egiziana e, in ultima analisi, il trattato di pace tra Egitto ed Israele. Contemporaneamente nasce l'OLP, che, sotto la guida di Yasser Arafat, diviene il rappresentante ufficiale di tutti i palestinesi.

How to bring peace to Gaza and Ukraine? Maybe the United Nations can help. Or, sadly, maybe not. But there really was a time, in the second half of the 20th century, when the United Nations could help bring peace to supposedly insoluble wars. The U.N.'s glory days were in the Sixties when it was run by a former Burmese school teacher called U Thant. His incredible story is told by his grandson, the Cambridge University historian Thant Myint-U, in a new book appropriately called Peacemaker. Thant Myint-U reminds us of a halcyon time when the UN Secretary-General could summon presidents at will, mediate between nuclear superpowers, and command respect from Castro to Kennedy. Today's forgotten history reveals how U Thant's intervention during the Cuban Missile Crisis helped prevent nuclear war—a role not-so-surprisingly airbrushed from most American and Soviet accounts. Yes, even in the glory years of the Sixties, the bureaucratized U.N. was far from perfect. But under a dedicated peacemaker like U-Thant it could help bring ceasefires to seemingly endless wars. Like in Ukraine and Gaza. 1. U Thant's crucial role in preventing nuclear war has been erased from history During the Cuban Missile Crisis, U Thant provided the face-saving framework that allowed both Khrushchev and Kennedy to step back from the brink. He articulated the missiles-for-no-invasion deal, gave Khrushchev a neutral party to respond to instead of American ultimatums, and bought Kennedy time against his hawkish advisors. Yet this intervention barely appears in American or Soviet accounts.2. The UN's decline stems from lost enthusiasm on both sides The UN's marginalization wasn't inevitable. It resulted from America's disillusionment after Vietnam-era challenges to its power, combined with a new generation of Third World leaders less interested in the global stage than their predecessors like Nehru, Nasser, and Nkrumah. Both superpowers and smaller nations stopped investing in the institution.3. Decolonization needed the UN's framework to succeed Without the UN providing a structure where newly independent nations had equal status and a voice, decolonization might have resulted in continued informal empire or Commonwealth arrangements. The UN gave these countries both legitimacy and a platform to resist neo-colonial pressures.4. The next Secretary-General selection could determine the UN's survival With the current term ending in 2025, the choice of the next leader—requiring agreement between Trump, Putin, and Xi Jinping—may be the UN's last chance for relevance. Without strong leadership focused on the UN's core peacemaking function, the institution may not survive.5. The UN worked best when it rejected Cold War binary thinking The non-aligned movement wasn't passive neutrality but active rejection of a world divided into camps. Leaders like U Thant succeeded by creating space for all parties to negotiate without choosing sides, offering an alternative to the superpower confrontation that risked nuclear war.Keen On America is a reader-supported publication.

I ugens Radio Information runder vi statsministerens undskyldning til de grønlandske kvinder. Vi taler om Israels angreb på pressen i Gaza, og så skal det handle om danskernes passionerede forhold til hakket oksekød --- I 1960'erne og 1970'erne fik tusindvis af grønlandske kvinder opsat spiral mod deres vilje. Det skete på piger helt ned til 12 år, i flere tilfælde uden deres vidende og med store konsekvenser for deres helbred. Alt sammen som et led i de danske myndigheders strategi om at reducere den grønlandske befolkningstilvækst. Onsdag i denne uge kom så endelig den undskyldning fra Mette Frederiksen og den danske stat, som kvinderne har ventet længe og tålmodigt på. Moderne Tider-redaktør Lærke Cramon fortæller historien om Spiralkampagnen og de kvinder, som betalte prisen for en kølig, kolonial kalkule. Mandag i denne uge angreb det israelske militær to gange inden for kort tid Nasser-hospitalet i byen Khan Younis i det sydlige Gaza. 20 personer, herunder fem journalister blev dræbt. Et tragisk uheld, hævder Netanyahu. Men i så fald et tragisk uheld, der bliver ved med at gentage sig. I alt vurderes omkring 200 journalister at være blevet slået ihjel i løbet af krigen. Og hver gang en journalist bliver dræbt, er der én mindre til at fortælle omverdenen om den katastrofe, der udspiller sig. Journalistisk chefredaktør Anton Geist og fotoredaktør Sigrid Nygaard fortæller om sagen – og om vanskelighederne ved at dække en konflikt, som vestlige medier ikke har adgang til. Og endelig skal det handle om danskernes forhold til oksekød, ikke mindst til den hakkede af slagsen. Prisen på den populære fars stiger, og det er blevet et politisk problem for Mette Frederiksen, der har lovet danskerne fri og billig adgang til spaghetti med kødsovs. Men hvordan gik det egentlig til, at det hakkede oksekød kom til at indtage en så prominent plads i dansk madkultur, at det betragtes som afgørende vigtigt at kunne servere det flere gange om ugen? Mikkel Vuorela kigger forbi og serverer det hakkede køds kulturhistorie – samt et svar på, hvad oksefarsen har at gøre med at føle sig som et godt menneske.
Resumen de la situación actual: El ejército de Israel continúa sus ataques, especialmente en Gaza, donde la población sufre escasez de agua y medicinas. Los hospitales están al límite, como el de Nasser. La presión internacional ha facilitado la entrada de alimentos, pero la distribución es complicada. En España, los incendios forestales persisten en León y Zamora, aunque han mejorado en Galicia. Se esperan fuertes lluvias en el norte peninsular. En deportes, se discuten los resultados de la Champions League y Eurobasket, con el Real Madrid y la selección española de baloncesto enfrentando desafíos. También se habla de la Operación Retorno de vacaciones y noticias curiosas sobre avistamientos inexplicables y fenómenos paranormales.

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has repeatedly challenged the assertion that starvation is rampant in Gaza, most recently when he slammed a UN report on famine as “blood libel.” On the Haaretz Podcast, Yarden Michaeli takes listeners behind the scenes of his in-depth reporting with Nir Hasson on the scale of severe acute malnutrition in Gaza. As Israel continues to bar journalists from entering the Strip, Michaeli and Hasson virtually “toured” clinics and hospitals in Gaza – including the pediatric ward of Nasser Hospital in Khan Yunis. Israel struck the hospital on Monday, killing multiple healthcare and media workers, including Moaz Abu Taha, the photographer who guided the Haaretz reporters through Nasser. As Michaeli “toured” the wards of Nasser, he saw children who were “very thin, with weak, glazed eyes, clearly severely malnourished with markers of starvation, like changes to their hair color, missing spots of hair on their head, missing teeth and rashes on their skin.” The condition of children, he was told by experts, are the earliest signs of large-scale famine in a population. “The fact that the marks of starvation are already visible on adults in Gaza shows that this whole situation is in an advanced stage,” said Michaeli. “We're not at the beginning. We're far and deep into the process.” Read more: 'Starvation Is Everywhere': Virtual Tours of Gaza Clinics Expose the Scale of the Horror UN Says Over Half a Million Palestinians in Gaza Suffering From Famine; Netanyahu: 'Outright Lie' Alex de Waal: 'Pasta Won't Help.

Saber Al-Asmar, médico de la Unidad de Cuidados Intensivos del Hospital Nasser en Khan Yunis, se refirió en La W a los dos ataques israelíes contra este centro de salud que mataron a 20 personas.
On Monday morning, Israeli forces launched not one, but two strikes on Nasser hospital in Khan Younis, southern Gaza. The first hit just after 10am. Then, around ten minutes later, as journalists and medics rushed to the scene, a second strike hit the same spot. At least twenty people were killed. Among them: five journalists and four health workers. The journalists were working for outlets including Reuters, the Associated Press, Al Jazeera, Middle East Eye and others. But, how is Israel justifying this latest attack, one that, on many fronts, may amount to a war crime?Join us on our journey through the events that shape the European continent and the European Union.Production: By Europod, in co production with Sphera Network.Follow us on:LinkedInInstagram Hosted on Acast.

Die Verenigde Nasies se sekretaris-generaal, António Guterres, vra ʼn onmiddellike en onpartydige ondersoek na dodelike Israelse aanvalle op die Nasser-hospitaal in Khan Yunis, Gaza.

Guterres se woordvoerder, Stéphane Dujarric, sê ʼn onmiddellike en permanente skietstilstand is Gaza is nou nodiger as ooit:
Hubo primero un ataque contra el hospital Nasser en Gaza. Empezaron a llegar los servicios de rescate. Los periodistas, para contarlo. Por eso esta vez hay vídeo. Estaban tomando imágenes. Se ve -se les ve a lo lejos- a personas con chalecos naranjas. Con guantes. Se ve cómo se organizan para tratar de sacar a los heridos. Fue un ataque contra los periodistas. Ayer el ejército israelí mató a cinco. A cinco en un hospital. Luego, mataron a otro de un disparo en Al Mawasi. Netanyahu ha dicho que valora el trabajo de los periodistas y que el bombardeo al hospital fue un accidente. De momento han matado a más de 240 periodistas según las autoridades gazatíes. Se llamaban Hossam Al Masri, Mohamed Salama, Mariam Abu Daqqa, Moaz Abu y Ahmed Abu Aziz.

The Israeli prime minister has expressed deep regret at what he called a tragic mishap at a hospital in southern Gaza, in which at least 20 people were killed. Five journalists were among the dead as a result of an Israeli strike on Nasser hospital in Khan Younis.

En el Estatuto de la Corte Penal Internacional se recoge que dirigir intencionalmente ataques contra la población civil que no participe directamente en las hostilidades es un crimen de guerra. Hoy el ejercito israelí ha atacado un hospital y ha dejado 20 muertos entre los que había médicos, periodistas, civiles. Hace apenas dos semanas el objetivo era otro grupo de periodistas. Más de 240 profesionales de la infomación han sido asesinados mientras trabajaban intentando contar el horror que se vive en la Franja de Gaza. Vamos a saber más de la fundación Hind Rajab, un organismo que investiga y lleva ante la justicia a presuntos criminales de guerra israelíes por el mundo y hemos hablado con uno de sus fundadores. Vamos a hablar en una entrevista con Thairi Moya, profesora de Derecho Internacional Público, para saber qué aplicación tiene lo que dice el Estatuto de Roma más de 20 años después. También estaremos en Vietnam, pendientes del tifón que ha provocado la evacuación de más de medio millón de personas. Y en Bangladesh porque el gobierno ha informado de que no va a seguir financiando nada relacionaco con los desplazados rohingyas en su país. Y como cuando hay una noticia positiva intentamos agarrarnos a ella, vamos a estar en uno de los carnavales más famosos del mundo: el del barrio londinense de Notting Hill. Escuchar audio

It's a Monday Fun Day on the Majority Report where the fun is rare, but you can't deny it is Monday. We open with a good news - bad news situation. The good news is violent crime in Washington DC has a hit a 30-year low. Bad news is Trump is declaring DC under federal control and deploying the National Guard. We are joined by Palestinian-Canadian emergency room physician, Dr. Tarek Loubani who is currently volunteering at Nasser hospital in Gaza. It's a harrowing interview but we must bear witness to the terror our tax dollars are funding. Check out Emma's interview with Dr. Loubani from last year. In the Fun Half: Pete Buttigieg uses his signature brand of meaningless corporate consultant talk to the topic of Israel on Pod Save America. Rep Bryan Steil (R-WI) gets heckled out of the building during his town hall. Israel assassinated 5 more journalists, never in history have we seen a country target the press like this. Last Week Tonight with John Oliver did a segment on Chuck Schumer's imaginary best friends, "The Baileys". Maybe one of the LWT writers are MR fans? Patrick Bet-David uses every ounce of his very limited broadcasting ability to spin a report that shows how monumentally unpopular Elon Musk and Donald Trump are. ICE and CBP claim being brown qualifies as reasonable suspicion and GOP Latinos are starting to feel the pressure that they voted for. All that and more plus phone calls and IMs The Congress switchboard number is (202) 224-3121. You can use this number to connect with either the U.S. Senate or the House of Representatives.

Unpacking Israeli History kicks off a gripping 3-part series on the 1956 Suez Crisis—Israel's most overlooked war. In Part I, Noam Weissman unpacks the roots of this conflict: from Nasser's pan-Arabism and fedayeen attacks to Israel's bold doctrine of “escalation dominance.” But this isn't just a Cold War drama. It's the war that set the stage for the Six-Day War and forged the stormy yet defining alliance between Israel and the United States; a turning point in Israeli and Middle Eastern history that still echoes today.
