Other coverage in the international press

Also worth noting in brief:

  • If you have nothing better to do with your day go ahead and read Amr Hamzawy’s 28+ page Carnegie Endowment report on how Egypt’s reality has, since 2013, been characterized “by the success of the new authoritarian approach in closing the public space and pushing out pluralist politics” through law-making.
  • Actress Nelly Karim’s new film about [tadpole-like male reproductive cells] donation has made international headlines, with France 24 giving it props for dealing with “issues that are thorny for Egyptians.”
  • Speaking from personal experience, Steven A. Cook writes in Salonthat fake news has a long history in the Middle East, warning that the US could be heading there.
  • Turkey’s Anadolu picked up on Egyptian authorities suspending a preacher for publicly supporting Turkey “against racism by a European country.”
  • Egyptian authorities renewed the detention of Al Jazeera journalist Mahmoud Hussein for the fifth time since he was detained and questioned on 20 December last year, Al Jazeera says.
  • Breitbart has outdone itself this time, writing that stress levels among Israeli kids have been shooting up as a result of the “sounds of explosions across the border” from the fight between Egypt’s military and Daeshbags in North Sinai. Wonder what their stress level would be like if the terrorist garbage was allowed to run amok?
