Egypt close to securing deal for up to 100 South Korean FA-50 light attack aircraft
Egypt is in advanced negotiations with South Korea to buy up to 100 FA-50 light attack aircraft, Egyptian Ambassador to
Egypt will host a meeting together with Israel and the United States on Sunday to discuss the reopening of the Rafah crossing into the war-torn Gaza Strip, Egyptian media reported.
The state-linked Al-Qahera News on Saturday quoted "a senior official" as
saying that Egypt was demanding "a total Israeli withdrawal" from the
terminal, which has been closed since Israel seized the Palestinian side of
the crossing in early May, reducing aid flows into the besieged territory to a
trickle.
