CAIRO/GAZA CITY — Chinese President Xi Jinping arrived in Cairo for his first state visit to Egypt in a decade, marking a high-stakes diplomatic move as the ongoing war with Iran forces Middle Eastern nations to heavily reassess their traditional security and economic partnerships.
Welcomed at Cairo International Airport by Egyptian President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi, Xi's visit underscores deepening bilateral ties spanning defense, technology, and regional trade. Analysts note that ongoing military friction involving Iran and doubts over Washington's long-term reliability have driven Cairo and other regional players to aggressively pursue greater strategic autonomy.
Simultaneously, the security landscape in the region shifted sharply on the ground as Israeli special forces carried out a high-risk raid deep inside Gaza City. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and defense officials confirmed that the joint operation involving the Shin Bet successfully captured Muein al-Arabid, the high-ranking head of Hamas’s internal security apparatus. The targeted raid, which was accompanied by intensive air support to neutralize local threats, marks one of the most significant high-level capture operations inside the enclave since the onset of ongoing hostilities.
