Armed robbers stormed the Bulgari luxury jewelry store on the famous Place Vendome in central Paris in broad daylight on Saturday, stealing items worth millions of euros, police and prosecutors said.

A police source said, quoting preliminary information, that three people arrived on two motorcycles and entered the shop in the famous tourist neighborhood at around 13:45 local time (11:45 GMT).

The same source added that two of them were carrying rifles, indicating that they injured a security guard.

Another source familiar with the investigation told AFP that the full size of the spoils and damages estimated at millions of euros were still being assessed.

Videos posted on social networks on Saturday showed two large motorcycles parked on the sidewalk in front of the jewelry store.

It also shows a man wearing a helmet, carrying a gun and wearing black clothes, who is watching.

Later, three men can be seen fleeing the robbery site on the two motorbikes.

The Paris prosecutor's office announced the opening of an investigation into armed robbery.

The Bulgari store itself was targeted by an armed robbery in broad daylight in September 2021, when thieves stole around 10 million euros from it.

Following the robbery, one of the robbers was shot in the leg by a policeman. After his arrest, he was tried and imprisoned.
In June 2022, two more suspects were arrested and placed in pretrial detention.

The Hebrew newspaper Haaretz said, on Sunday, that while Israel is counting the number of missiles it launches and the weapons stores it destroys, Iran is reaping political gains that are difficult to eliminate with missiles.

The Hebrew newspaper referred to the Israeli bombing of Homs at dawn yesterday, targeting weapons and ammunition stores for Hezbollah near the city of Homs, noting that this raid was carried out less than a day after the end of Iranian Foreign Minister Hossein Abdullahian's visit to Beirut and the northern border.

The newspaper says: "It is not clear what was the urgency of carrying out the attack yesterday, especially since there was no weapons convoy that could disappear, other than the desire to send a clear message to Iran one day after the visit of its foreign minister near the border with Israel." According to her saying.

And she added, "This is the nature of the dialogue that Israel is conducting with Iran, within the framework of what was known as the "campaign between the two wars," noting that this is part of a battle that is currently being waged until a comprehensive war is reached.

She pointed out that Lahian's visit came after the agreement to renew relations with Saudi Arabia, an agreement that shook the entire region, noting that Tehran is currently promoting a political solution to the deep economic crisis that Lebanon is experiencing.

Haaretz says that, unlike the media statements, Iran is facing a crossroads of basic decisions, dictated specifically by the renewal of relations between Tehran and Riyadh, and the rapprochement between Saudi Arabia and other Arab countries with Syria, which may return to the Arab League, in order to maintain its position. , which is why Iran must begin adjusting its positions with those who until recently were its arch-rivals. as she said.

The newspaper referred to the internal Lebanese crisis and the accompanying Arab and international interventions, noting that Lebanon's economic future does not depend only on Saudi Arabia, but that the Arab legitimacy of the Assad regime also passes through Riyadh, and here lies Iran's vital interest in clarifying who owns the government in Damascus, especially after Russia reduced its political activity to find a solution to the war in Syria after the war in Ukraine, as it said.

It indicates that the Arab legitimacy of Assad - from Iran's point of view - may lead to international legitimacy even though the United States is not a partner with it, and thus the strategic distinction between the Iranian axis and the Arab axis, which until a year ago served as the basis for the anti-Iranian alliance in which Israel was a factor.

The Hebrew newspaper believes that the new system of relations in the region may give Iran a new regional status and withdraw it from Arab isolation, but for that the price will be for it to offer flexibility in the issue of the Lebanese presidency in favor of the Saudi position, and it may agree to a candidate other than the one that Hezbollah is pushing towards, along with the solution. The politician in Syria, who may oblige Assad to grant a seat of honor to Saudi Arabia, and Abran must swallow this frog, to ensure Arab Syria, and to avoid political confrontation with Saudi Arabia after it has become a "brother country."

From Israel's point of view, the direct consequences could be to reduce the freedom of military action it enjoys in Syria, and perhaps even to stop it completely, because Syria may enjoy Saudi protection, and Turkey may agree to withdraw from its lands, and for Russia to go to examine the permission it gives to Israel. To act however it likes in Syria, so Israel may have to return to the old and less favorable rules of the game, according to which its hot front will be directly against Lebanon and not in the appropriate stadium "Syria", where it can exceed the balance of deterrence it has against Hezbollah.

The Commission called on all international institutions and bodies, especially the World Health Organization, the Red Cross and Doctors Without Borders, to intervene urgently to save the life of the sick prisoner, Mutawakkil Radwan, to release him to provide him with the necessary treatment outside prisons.

The prisoner was arrested on October 5, 2003, from Qalqilya Governorate, after a chase that lasted for more than two years. He was caught at four o'clock in the morning in a residential building in Qalqilya Governorate, after the house and his area were surrounded for several hours. He was sentenced to 22 years in prison.

US police said they are continuing their search for a gunman believed to have killed five Hondurans after they asked him to stop bothering them by shooting at his home, in the latest mass shooting in the United States.

Among the victims was an eight-year-old boy who died when the suspect, apparently drunk, broke into the house near his house and proceeded to fire a semi-automatic weapon at its occupants, who had enraged him by asking him to stop practicing shooting in his garden late at night, so that he could Their child from sleeping, according to what was reported by the media.

San Jacinto County Sheriff Greg Capers, north of Houston, described a horrific scene law enforcement faced when they drove to the home after receiving a call about "harassment" and a shooting Friday night.

Kuipers said they found the bodies of victims, ranging in age from 8 to 40, from the front door to an inner bedroom, where the bodies of two women were found lying on top of two dazed and traumatized children.

"In my opinion, they were trying to protect the kids to save their lives," Capers told IBC affiliate KTRK in Houston.

He pointed out that all the dead were shot "from the neck up to the head, execution style."

The sheriff's office had previously said on Facebook that police had found "several people in critical condition with gunshot wounds," three of whom were taken to hospital.

The sheriff told KTRK that the suspect "was drinking, saying 'I'm going to do whatever I want on my front lawn'."

"All the victims are from Honduras," Capers told reporters, adding that 10 people were inside the house at the time.

Honduran Foreign Minister Enrique Reina demanded on Twitter that the gunman face the harshest punishment in accordance with the law, indicating that officials will follow the case closely.

Texas authorities announced that an arrest warrant had been issued for Francisco Oropeza, a 39-year-old Mexican national who was wanted on five counts of murder.

"We got his Mexican consular card," Capers said, adding that an alarm in the victims' home "took pictures of him approaching the front door with his weapon."

In a Facebook post, the sheriff's office said it believed the shooter had left the county, but advised residents to stay home.

There have been more than 170 mass shootings in states so far this year, according to the Gun Violence Archive.

Elon Musk announced Saturday a plan for the Twitter platform that would allow media publishers to charge users on an article-by-article basis with one click.

"This enables users who do not subscribe monthly to pay a higher rate for reading each article in passing," the billionaire businessman said on Twitter, adding, "This should be a major win for media organizations and the public alike."

He added that the plan would start appearing next month, but he did not give details of the exact prices or the percentage that the Twitter platform would charge.

The announcement comes as Musk struggles to make Twitter profitable amid controversial plans.

Media organizations have long struggled to set up reliable subscription plans to cover their operating costs, even though readers have become accustomed to free news on the Internet.

The challenge for Musk is how to make the micro-pay-for-content approach work where others have failed.

British journalist James Poole reported in the Columbia Journalism Review a series of problems with micro-payments, an idea he says "certainly has had major publishers around the world".

Many users will immediately turn away once they hit a pay-to-read system, and publishers "largely" like to sign up for permanent subscribers because it gets them much more ad revenue than the 20 cents or so per article they read.

And many people on Twitter raised other objections, as some considered that reading on a per-article basis would encourage "click bait" to attract readers with deceptive titles, and that preference could be given to large publishers at the expense of small ones, in addition to that it is not clear if the writers will also share. proceeds with publishers.

But others on Twitter reacted positively to the plan.

"A great idea," Greg Autry tweeted, adding, "As a regular columnist for publications such as Forbes, Foreign Policy, and Ad-Astra, I often get frustrated when my work ends up behind a payment system that my followers don't want to sign up for. This is the right solution."

Carlos Gil, author of a book on marketing, tweeted, "Finally, pay-per-view in the world of news won't make you feel like you're buying beer at an overpriced stadium. Get your articles on demand now and keep your wallet happy."

When the Hamas government announced new taxes on some exports and imports in the Gaza Strip, merchants resorted to strikes and legal proceedings, in rare legal procedures, to protest the decisions they considered "unfair."

Last July, the government announced an increase in the value of import duties on a list of about 24 food commodities, including infant formula, mineral water, and others, in addition to additional fees on imported jeans.

Immediately, the import duties for infant formula increased four times per ton, and 15 times for imported mineral water. The decision also affected thyme imported from the West Bank, whose import fees increased tenfold.

These decisions put additional pressure on the residents of the Gaza Strip, which is already suffering from a high poverty rate and the repercussions of the blockade imposed by Israel for a decade and a half.

Economic expert Mazen al-Ajlah says that the imposed fees are "illegal," pointing out that the government (in Gaza) relied on "arbitrary estimation to determine the value of these fees, and negotiates them with the merchant, and this reflects lack of professionalism and extortion."

Tax measures came into effect in August, and merchants were forced to pay new fees to release their goods, which were seized by the Hamas government in the warehouses of the Kerem Shalom (Kerem Shalom) commercial crossing in the southern Strip, according to what a number of them confirmed.

In October, more than 40 merchants in the Gaza Strip went to court, in a first step in this field, to block the implementation of the new tax procedures, which they considered "unfair and harmful to their interests."

The judiciary responded by freezing the implementation of these increases until the cases filed are resolved, but this did not prevent the high prices of many products in the local market.

In March, the Gaza government sparked controversy again after imposing new taxes on the export of fish from the Strip and on imported fruit.

As a result, the prices of some types of infant formula increased from one shekel (0.27 cents) to nine shekels (2.47 dollars) per box, as confirmed by the owners of pharmacies in Gaza, with whom Agence France-Presse spoke.

One of the pharmacists pointed out that "prices are witnessing a global rise, and there is no possibility of an increase in fees here."

As for fish, the Gaza Strip on the Mediterranean coast imports about 120 tons of fish from Egypt per month, while the Strip's merchants are allowed to export 60 tons per month to the West Bank and Israel, according to an official in the Fishermen's Syndicate.

A fish trader, who preferred to remain anonymous, says, "In the past, we used to pay one shekel tax for every kilogram of fish we imported from Egypt through the Salah al-Din Gate (the border with Egypt). According to the new tax, we will pay 5 shekels for every kilo we import from Egypt."

A two-week strike by merchants prompted the government to back down from the new tax imposed on fruits, according to a number of senior merchants.

According to the owner of a foodstuff import and export company, "the principle in the law is that we do not pay any fees because we pay taxes in Israeli ports for the benefit of the Palestinian Authority."

"We have been committed to paying fees on goods in Gaza for years, but raising taxes in this way is unreasonable," Wassim al-Hilu continues.

Al-Hilu, a member of the Chamber of Commerce, notes that the value of fees has risen "by at least 100%, and this harms the already dilapidated economy."

On the other hand, Director General of Policies and Planning at the Ministry, Osama Nofal, says that these fees "are not aimed at collection as much as they are aimed at supporting the local product, which is what really happened."

The official of the Economic Committee at the Chamber of Commerce, Riyad Al-Sawafiri, explains that until the judiciary decided on the merchants' complaint, the Hamas government required the merchants to undertake to pay the value of the new fees retroactively if the ruling was in its favour.

Traders decided to reduce the quantities of imported goods by almost half, especially imported mineral water.

Commenting on this step, Nofal says that the government's goal in this regard is to "support desalination plants in the Strip."

However, Al-Ajlah stresses that “supporting the local product is not done by imposing a tax on imported items, but rather by canceling the income and value-added taxes imposed on raw materials, or by providing free electricity” to factories.

The sector suffers from a scarcity of groundwater and high levels of pollution. Most of its population of more than 2.3 million people relies on buying water in plastic bottles.

The tax measures affected the clothing sector, as it imposed ten shekels on every imported jeans and every abaya.

"We rejected this unfair decision, and we filed a case against him, which ended in reaching an agreement with the Ministry of Economy that allows the import of 600,000 pants and 150,000 abayas and robes annually, exempt from fees," said Nahed Al-Souda, secretary of the Clothing Merchants Syndicate.

The Gaza Strip imports between 3 and 4 million pants annually, according to Al-Souda.

Therefore, Al-Soudah considers that the exempted quantities remain insufficient.

Khartoum witnessed air raids and gunfire on Saturday, while the evacuation of thousands of foreigners from Sudan continued, as the battles between the army and the Rapid Support Forces entered their third week, despite the declared armistice and international efforts to stop the fighting.

Sudan has plunged into chaos since the bloody struggle for power erupted in mid-April between army commander Abdel Fattah al-Burhan and the commander of the Rapid Support Forces, Mohamed Hamdan Dagalo, nicknamed "Hemedti".

The war left at least 528 dead and 4,599 wounded, according to figures announced by the Ministry of Health on Saturday, but the toll is likely to be higher.

About 75,000 people have been displaced to neighboring countries, Egypt, Ethiopia, Chad and South Sudan, according to the United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs, while foreign countries are organizing large-scale evacuations.

In this context, the Secretary-General of the United Nations, António Guterres, expressed his regret at the continuation of the fighting while “the country is collapsing,” according to what he said in a statement to the Saudi news channel, Al-Arabiya.

The two parties to the conflict exchange accusations of violating the armistice, which was extended for three days under international mediation, and ends Sunday at midnight (22:00 GMT).

Residents trying to flee or staying in their homes suffer comprehensive crises, with water and electricity cuts and food shortages.
"We woke up again to the sounds of warplanes and anti-aircraft guns all over the neighborhood," a resident of southern Khartoum told AFP.

Another witness confirmed that the fighting has been going on since dawn, especially around the headquarters of the public television channel in the suburb of Omdurman, north of Khartoum.

And the Sudanese Doctors Syndicate announced that 70% of the health facilities in the areas close to the fighting sites are out of service, and many of them are under bombardment.

The two warring generals exchanged accusations through the media on Friday.

On the American Al-Hurra channel, Al-Burhan described the RSF as a "militia that seeks to destroy Sudan," stressing the influx of "mercenaries" from Chad, the Central African Republic and Niger.

As for Daglo, for his part, he spoke on the "BBC" channel about his opponent, describing him as a "traitor," considering that he is "not trustworthy."

In 2021, Al-Burhan and Daglo overthrew their civilian partners, after sharing power with them since the fall of President Omar Al-Bashir in 2019.

However, differences soon emerged between them and escalated, the most prominent of which was the conditions for integrating the Rapid Support Forces into the army, before it developed into an armed conflict on April 15th.

The UN representative in Sudan, Volker Berthes, told Al-Jazeera that there was "no indication" of the outbreak of fighting on April 15, especially since the two parties to the conflict were scheduled to meet on the aforementioned day.

On Saturday, South Sudanese President Salva Kiir, a historic mediator in Sudan, called on the two generals to hold a "constructive and concrete direct dialogue".

He also urged them not to "attempt to reinforce positions," noting that many observers noted that any truce did not hold because neither side to the conflict wanted to allow the other an opportunity to advance or bring in reinforcements.

And former Sudanese Prime Minister Abdullah Hamdok warned on Saturday that the conflict in Sudan could escalate into one of the worst civil wars in the world if it is not put to an end.

And if the truce did not put an end to the fighting, it allowed the humanitarian corridors to remain open. In this context, a convoy organized by the United States allowed the evacuation of American citizens and from other countries to Port Sudan (east).

From the aforementioned place, a ship carrying about 1,900 people of different nationalities arrived in Jeddah, in western Saudi Arabia, on Saturday.

And Saudi Arabia announced that, in total, about 4,879 of its citizens and citizens of 96 other countries had been evacuated through the Kingdom.

Mehrdad Malekzadeh, 28, who grew up in Sudan, was one of the first Iranians to be evacuated on Saturday. In Jeddah, he described to AFP the daily shelling and explosions in Khartoum, saying, "We never imagined that the situation would become so tense."

Britain's Foreign Office said fewer than 1,900 Britons had been evacuated on 21 flights, including a final flight that was due to leave on Saturday.

A statement issued by the US State Department announced that a convoy comprising US citizens, local employees and citizens of allied countries arrived in Port Sudan on Saturday, with the continuation of the evacuation process from war-torn Sudan.

The statement issued by State Department spokesman Matthew Miller did not specify the number of people in the convoy.

For its part, Canada said that "the window of opportunity is narrowing," and Canadian Defense Minister Anita Anand said, "We continue to evaluate various options for the evacuation of Canadians, including through land and sea routes."

She added that "more than 375 Canadians" have been evacuated from Sudan, and about 300 others are still waiting for assistance to get out of the country.

The World Food Program expects millions more people to face hunger in one of the world's poorest countries, where nearly a third of Sudan's 45 million people needed food assistance before the war broke out.

In West Darfur, at least 96 people have been killed since Monday in El Geneina, according to the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights, which described the situation as "serious".

Looting, destruction and arson are increasing, including inside camps for the displaced, according to Doctors Without Borders, which was forced to "stop almost all of its work in West Darfur" because of the violence, according to the organization's deputy director in Sudan, Sylvain Peron.

In a statement, Peron warned that his organization is "very concerned about the impact of violence on those who have already suffered waves of violence."
The Darfur region witnessed a bloody war that began in 2003 between the Bashir regime and rebels belonging to ethnic minorities, killing 300,000 people and displacing 2.5 million others, according to the United Nations.

On Sunday morning, dozens of settlers stormed the blessed Al-Aqsa Mosque, under the strict protection of the occupation police.

The settlers made provocative tours inside the courtyards of Al-Aqsa Mosque, and performed Talmudic rituals.

Settler groups storm Al-Aqsa on a daily basis, except for Friday and Saturday.

Moroccan sports hope failed to exploit the ground workers and the public in order to achieve a “Remontada”, so that its Egyptian guest, Al-Ahly, qualified for the semi-finals of the African Champions League football competition, after they tied negatively in the second leg of the quarter-finals, Saturday, in a match preceded by riots and an encouraging death, with the advantage of winning the first leg 2 -zero.

The tie also dominated the confrontation between Esperance de Tunis and its guest JS Kabylie, 1-1, in a match that witnessed riots and skirmishes between the public and security.

Al-Ahly, seeking its eleventh title and strengthening its record, will meet Esperance, who aspires to the fifth title.

At the “Mohamed V” stadium in Casablanca, Al-Ahly confirmed that it had reached the semi-finals of the continental competition for the fourth time in a row.

The confrontation was preceded by riots in the vicinity of the stadium and stampede due to the fans' dissatisfaction with their inability to enter the stadium, which resulted in the death of a 29-year-old woman, according to a statement by the local authorities of the city of Casablanca.

An official source told Agence France-Presse that the death was "due to a medical condition causing pain to the victim," while a judicial investigation was announced to "determine its circumstances and circumstances."

The Tunisian coach, Raja Munther Al-Kabeer, relied on an offensive squad led by Hamza Khaba and Nawfal Al-Zarhouni, while the Swiss coach of Al-Ahly, Marcel Koller, did not make many changes to the first-leg squad, with the exception of the inclusion of Hamdi Fathy in place of the injured Amr Al-Suleya.

And the Tunisian full-back of Al-Ahly, Ali Maaloul, said that his team deserved to qualify for the golden square, and added, “Given the great effort we made in the two matches, we deserve to pass to the semi-finals.” It is normal, and in the second, we knew how to absorb the enthusiasm of the Raja players and lead the match to safety and snatch qualification, hoping that we would follow in a high pace to reach the final.”

The owners of the land pressed from the start, and Zarhouni hit from afar. The ball hit the Egyptian defense and passed outside the stadium (9), and the Moroccan team continued its control, but the danger was almost non-existent in the goal of international goalkeeper Mohamed El-Shennawy, who saved Algerian Yousri Bouzouk’s shot from under the crossbar into a corner ( 27).

Bouzouk executed a corner kick crosswise, and Mohamed Al-Mekazi grabbed the ball with his head, which passed over the goal (40).
Libyan international referee Moataz Ibrahim awarded a penalty kick to Raja after he returned to the video referee technique, “VAR”, after a mistake by Mali Aliou Diang on Bouzouk, who hit the ball himself, which bounced off the crossbar (45 + 3).

The scene did not change in the second half, as the absolute advantage of the landlords continued, especially after the great offensive coach changed by involving Mohamed Polaksut and veteran Abdel-Ilah Al-Hafizi, in exchange for the Egyptian team closing all avenues towards Al-Shennawi's goal.

Al-Hafizhi passed a cross in front of the goal from the right, which Hamza Khaba met with a shot into the side netting from the outside (75).
Koller pushed offensive names, hoping to hijack the meeting, as Muhammad Sharif and Taher Muhammad Taher entered. Khaba almost hit the net after a shot from inside the penalty area, which Al-Shennawi removed from the bottom right of his own goal (90 + 2).

And at the “Hammadi Al-Aqrabi” stadium in Rades, Esperance tied with its guest, JS Kabylie, 1-1, in a match that witnessed great violence between the public and security.

The Bab Souika team qualified by winning the first leg in Algeria with a clean goal.

The first half did not rise to the level of the importance of the meeting, due to the great reservations of the two teams, so the play was confined to the midfield with scarce chances, the most prominent of which was for the homeowners when Moroccan Saber Boukrine hit a powerful ball that was blocked by Algerian goalkeeper Abdel Rahman Majadel with an achievement (22).

The referee canceled a goal for the guests via Wasila Boualia on the grounds of offside (32). And Muhammad Ali bin Ramadan pushed it back to a corner (40).

The start of the second half was delayed for more than forty minutes due to the clash between the Esperance fans and the security forces charged with protecting the match, and a fire broke out in one of the southern corners of the stadium due to the throwing of fire meteors, and the security units responded by firing tear gas, causing chaos in the stands.

Bin Ramadan was able to put Esperance in the lead with a powerful left shot, which settled in the right scissors of Majadel’s goal, after a long front pass from Yassin Meriah (49).
The Algerian team threw all its cards to control the course, while the Tunisians relied on quick counterattacks and Muhammad Ali Bin Hamouda was alone, but he failed to deceive goalkeeper Majadal, who saved the situation (63).

The “Canary” equalized when Dadi Al-Hussein Mawaqi made a distinguished individual effort and hit a powerful ball, which bounced off Esperance goalkeeper Moez Bin Sharifia to substitute Adam Radim, who followed it into the goal (84).

Kabyle players tightened their control and threatened the Esperance goal in the last minutes, and Mawaqi almost qualified for his team, but Ben Cherifieh shone in blocking his powerful shot (90 + 5).

Mamelodi Sundowns, South Africa, reached the semi-finals, after renewing its victory over its guest, Al-Shabab Al-Sport, Algerian Belouizdad, 2-1, in Pretoria.
Sundowns, the champion of the 2016 edition, deservedly reached the semi-finals, after winning the first leg 4-1 in Algeria, where it will clash with the defending champion Wydad Athletic of Morocco, who defeated Simba Tanzanian on penalties.

The two teams shared control of the course of the first half, with a relative advantage for the hosts, but the Algerian league champion was able to open the scoring through Sofiane Bouchard with a powerful shot, investing in the pass of midfielder Youssef Laafia (24).

Before the half-time break, Mamelodi equalized through his top scorer, Themba Zwane, with a shot that deceived goalkeeper Alexis Kunduz after a cross from Thabelo Morena (45).

Barely four minutes into the second half, Morena gave the hosts the lead with a powerful shot that bounced back at him from one of the Algerian team's defenders (49).

Barcelona regained the spark that enabled it to fly far in the lead and walk towards the first title since 2019, with a huge victory over the powerful Real Betis 4-0, while its rivals Real Madrid clung to the runner-up by beating Almeria 4-2 thanks to the Frenchman Karim Benzema’s hat-trick on Saturday in the stage. 32 of the Spanish league.

At Camp Nou, Barcelona took advantage of the numerical shortage in the ranks of Betis since the 33rd minute to achieve only its second victory in the last five matches and thus maintain the 11-point difference that separates it from Real six stages before the end of the season.

And after fasting from scoring for four consecutive matches, the Polish Robert Lewandowski managed to reach the net for the second match in a row, but this time with a victory, unlike Wednesday’s meeting in which Barcelona fell to Rayo Vallecano (1-2), reinforcing his lead in the scorers’ ranking with 19 goals, two ahead of Benzema.

The eleventh defeat of guest Betis, who lost for the third time this season against Barcelona (in the Super Cup semi-finals and the first leg of the league), was a near-destructive blow to his hopes of participating in the Champions League, as he became 9 points behind Real Sociedad IV, who won Friday against Osasuna 2. -zero.

Barcelona started the meeting well, as it opened the scoring in the 14th minute, thanks to Danish defender Andreas Christensen, who headed the ball into the net after a cross from Brazilian Rafinha.

Then, after the dismissal of Edgar Gonzalez, who entered in the 13th minute instead of the Italian injured Luiz Felipe, with a second warning (33), Barcelona strengthened its lead with a second goal through Lewandowski after a pass from Frenchman Jules Conde (36).

By raising his score to 19 goals, Lewandowski became the first player to reach this number of goals in his first season with Barcelona since Cameroonian Samuel Eto'o in the 2004-2005 season (24 goals), according to "Opta" statistics.

And soon the Catalan club added the third goal through Rafinha after a beautiful pass from Sergio Busquets, whose validity was confirmed after resorting to the video assistant referee (39).

Barcelona was close to the fourth goal at the beginning of the second half, but the left post stood in the face of Lewandowski (57).
The 73rd minute witnessed the entry of Frenchman Othmane Dembele into Barcelona for the first time since he suffered a thigh injury in January, to join Pedri, who in turn returned at the end of last week in the victory over Atletico Madrid (1-0).

But the fourth goal came thanks to the other substitute, Ansu Fati, who penetrated on the left side and played the ball crossly, so Guido Rodrigues accidentally turned it into his own net (82) at the end of an evening that witnessed the entry of the young Lamine Yamal as well, becoming at the age of 15 years and 290 days the youngest player to defend the colors of Barcelona in League and fifth in the history of "La Liga" according to "Opta".

Real also regained its balance and ensured its exit from the stage in the runner-up by defeating its guest Almeria 4-2, restoring its balance after falling to Girona 2-4 in the last stage, which gave neighboring Atletico the opportunity to reduce the difference to two points.

In light of Barcelona's tweeting in the lead, Real seeks to adhere to the "moral" description, since it is largely guarantor of participation in the Champions League, as it is temporarily 18 points ahead of Villarreal V.

Italian coach Carlo Ancelotti's team advanced by 5 points from its third neighbor, Atletico Madrid, who is visiting Valladolid on Sunday, and is also assured of its participation in the Champions League.

"We always have a great desire to win," said Brazilian Rodrigo, who passed a decisive ball and scored a goal. "After losing the last match, we had an even greater desire to return to winning."

"We played a very good game and I'm happy to have another assist and another goal, but the most important thing is that we won."
Real struck early and opened the scoring less than 5 minutes after the start through Benzema, who received the ball on a silver platter from Brazilian Vinicius Junior after an effort on the left side, so he followed it into the net.

And soon Benzema added his second goal, this time after an effort by Rodrigo, who manipulated the defense on the right side before reflecting the ball to the Frenchman, so he hit it with his right into the net (17).

With this, Benzema raised his total score in the Spanish League to 235 goals, displacing, by a goal difference, Mexican Hugo Sanchez from fourth place on the list of historical scorers for “La Liga”, before adding his third goal in the match and 236 in the league from a penalty kick that Lucas Vazquez snatched (42). ).

Almeria narrowed the gap before the end of the first half through Brazilian Lazzaro Marques after a pass from the Belgian Largi Ramazani (1 + 45), but Real responded at the beginning of the second and added the fourth through Rodrigo with a wonderful shot from outside the area (48).

Almeria returned to reduce the difference, taking advantage of the royal club’s reluctance, thanks to the header of Argentine substitute Lucas Robertoni, after a cross from Francisco Portillo (61), then canceled a penalty kick for Benzema (81) after resorting to “VAR” before the Frenchman hit the left post (86). ) who then saved a shot by substitute Marco Asensio (90).

Al-Dosari opened the scoring for the hosts (13), while Shinzo Koroki equalized for the guests (53), before the winger was sent off four minutes before the end for violent behavior after Kane kicked Iwa after he was knocked down by the latter (86).

Al-Dossary's absence will be a strong blow to Al-Hilal, who holds the record number of titles (4) and is looking to consolidate his power, while Urawa wants a third title after 2007 and 2017.

More than a year after its launch, the final match of the 2022 edition was finally held. Urawa booked the final ticket about nine months ago, while the 2022 World Cup in Qatar and the complications resulting from the Covid-19 pandemic contributed to the holding of the final round more than a year after the start of the tournament. continental.

Al Hilal coach Ramon Dias said after the match, "Al Hilal made a good start, but in the final matches, any mistake complicates matters. The match was strong, and Al Hilal is able to win in Japan, as things are not completely over."

He continued, "We were the best in most of the match, but it appeared that the players had to rush and rush in order to score goals, and some factors affected the match, such as the expulsion that Salem Al-Dosari was subjected to, but another half remains in Japan, and we hope the fans will support and not lose hope."

In turn, Al Hilal's Brazilian defender, Michael Delgado, said, "It is unfortunate that Salem Al-Dosari got a red card. The team fought to win and we tried to score goals, but we did not succeed. There is still a second half in Japan."

The guests equalized early in the second half with a gift from the hosts, as the defender, returning from injury, Ali Al-Bulayhi, tried to cut a ball in the depths directed at Koroki. (53).

And there was a clear opportunity for Mali Musa Mariga to give Al-Hilal the lead when he hit a ball from the right side inside the area, which passed very close to the right post (66).

Al-Dosari was sent off before the end of the match after he kicked Ken Iwa with his leg in response to being knocked to the ground by the latter, amid the disappointment of the hosts.

This is the third final between Al-Hilal and Urawa within six years. The Japanese team won in 2017 (1-1 and 1-0) when Dias was coach of Al-Hilal in his first term, then the Saudi team returned the debt in the 2019 final (1-0 and 2-0) when He won his third title before adding the fourth in 2021 at the expense of South Korean Pohang Steels 2-0.

Roma coach Jose Mourinho said after the match, "We are not a rich team, we do not have a large squad, every time we lose a player it is a big problem. Of course I am sad because the three points were in our hands, but my pride is greater than my sadness."

According to the newspaper, Haskel will try to reduce the standards currently in place for carrying weapons for self-defense, noting that the MK pointed out the success of many former soldiers in neutralizing many Palestinians and thwarting attacks, which enables them to quickly thwart potential attacks.

Haskel aims from the second law to allow the families of the dead Israelis to be a party in the court against the perpetrators of the attacks, and to express their demands during the hearings before the verdict is pronounced.

The Hebrew newspaper Israel Hayom claimed, on Sunday, that there is cautious optimism in Israel regarding the possibility of success in new attempts at rapprochement with the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.

According to the Hebrew newspaper, the prominent Republican Senator, Bindsey Graham, is leading efforts to bridge the gap between the two sides, and he had visited Riyadh recently before heading to Tel Aviv.

It quoted US sources as saying that Saudi Arabia has 4 main demands that it presented to the United States, including the establishment of a defense alliance, the establishment of a nuclear reactor for civilian purposes, the improvement of joint trade, and an end to criticism against it over the killing of journalist Jamal Khashoggi.

A senior US official told the Hebrew newspaper that Washington is studying the demands presented by Saudi Arabia as a condition for progress towards normalization between Riyadh and Tel Aviv, and that this issue is expected to continue for several months to be decided by the US administration, which Graham announced his support for any step in this direction, although he belongs to to the rival party.

According to the newspaper, it is not known what is Tel Aviv's position on the Saudi request regarding the development of Saudi nuclear capabilities for civilian purposes, which is the most sensitive issue from its point of view.

The newspaper claims that the Palestinian issue, despite the kingdom's statements, was not included in Saudi Arabia's list of demands.

On Sunday morning, the Hebrew newspaper Haaretz reported that the number of deaths due to crimes committed among Jews and Arabs increased in the first four months of 2023, after Itamar Ben Gvir became minister of the so-called “national security,” compared to the same period last year.

The number of crime deaths this year reached 78, compared to 34 in the same period last year.

According to the newspaper, this number recorded since the beginning of the year is the highest in several decades, and the total number by the end of the year may reach 230 victims.

It appears from the statistics that 60 Palestinians from inside the country have been killed since the beginning of this year, compared to 26 from the same period last year, while 16 Jews and 8 of different foreign nationalities were killed, and the number of women killed reached 11, of whom 9 were due to domestic violence, compared to five in the previous year. same period last year.

According to the Hebrew newspaper, the mystery of only 3 murders committed among the Palestinians inside Israel has been solved, noting that most of the murders were committed against people known to the Israeli police, which indicates the strengthening of the operations of criminal organizations among the Arab community.

In the northern region, 19 people were killed, compared to 23 in the whole of last year, while in the central region, 14 Arabs were killed, including 9 in Lydda alone.

The Israeli police justify the jump in the number of murders under the pretext of diverting most of its forces to deal with the recent wave of Palestinian attacks and marches against "judicial reforms".

An Israeli police officer told the Hebrew newspaper that this issue is not a priority for Ben Gvir, and he does not care much about it.

Ben Gvir refused to respond to what was stated in the report, as reported by "Haaretz".

It turned out that close associates of Netanyahu, including the head of the Israeli National Security Council, Tzachi Hanegbi, were the ones who organized the meeting, which was hidden.

According to the site, Netanyahu hid the meeting so as not to disturb former US President Donald Trump, who intends to run for the upcoming presidential elections, in addition to his desire not to disturb current President Joe Biden, who announced in terms of his intention to run for the elections, as well as because he has so far refrained from inviting Netanyahu to visit the White House.

At dawn on Sunday, the Israeli occupation forces carried out raids on several areas in the West Bank.

Those forces stormed the city of Tulkarm, and resistance fighters opened fire on those forces before they withdrew.

The occupation forces also raided the house of the released prisoner, Rami Ratib Al-Deek, in the town of Kafr Al-Dik, west of Salfit, and carried out searches in the warehouses belonging to his family.

Khader Hindi Ajajia, 22, from the city of Beit Sahour, east of Bethlehem, arrested the released prisoner, Azzam Abdel-Wahhab Hamamreh, 26, and Muhammad Ahmed Shusha, 17, from the village of Husan, after their homes were raided and searched.

The case of the young martyr, Mustafa Amer Al-Sabah, constitutes a new example of crimes committed against minors by the Israeli occupation army.

Al-Sabah, as described by many of his colleagues and family members, was endowed with sharp intelligence and patriotic positions adhering to the legitimate rights of the Palestinian people and expressing them during his dialogue with them, and through what he was practicing in the field on the ground in terms of his constant confrontation with the occupation soldiers.

Certificate trail

And a video clip showed the martyr Mustafa answering a question to one of his friends, Where to go?, He replied saying to the path of martyrdom, while other clips showed his participation in confrontations with the occupation forces, in a way that has a lot of daring and arrogance.

And the mayor of Tuqu’, Musa al-Shaer, refers to the martyrdom of Mustafa Asr last Friday, indicating that he was in the front lines in the face of the army, with his face uncovered as every time, so the soldiers fired bullets at him, which led to his injury in the lungs, which caused him serious injuries, which was announced later. his martyrdom.

Then he is released to return to prison or to face injury, before he rises as a martyr.

Big ambition

Many of Mustafa's friends say that he was young, but his ambition was great, and he was equating between confrontation with the occupation and confrontation in school seats to achieve his ambition to obtain a higher degree in the academic field, before he was hit by a treacherous bullet that put an end to all these ambitions.

"They are killing childhood and putting an end to its aspirations," said Sari, a friend of Mustafa's.

The news of martyrdom

The news of Mustafa's martyrdom fell on his family like a thunderbolt, especially since the family suffered and suffers from the smell of death, and lived in harsh conditions after the death of 5 of Mustafa's sisters and a brother of his with an incurable disease, which greatly burdened the family and deepened the wound with Mustafa's rise.

Tears do not stop

And his bereaved father, whose tears and his wife's tears did not stop since the moment of martyrdom, says that Mustafa was smart and had a wide and charming smile that he distributed to everyone who saw him and was ethical and committed to his studies and the teachings of his religion.

And the father talks about the last moments before his martyrdom: “I prayed the Friday prayer with him before his martyrdom, and he asked me for five shekels and then he went to meet his friends. Not long after, I received news that a boy was seriously injured, so I put my hand on my heart, so that the news of martyrdom spread, so that he would go and leave me alone.” Especially since my other son has been in prison for 14 months, and he is still detained awaiting trial, and he has a young daughter, no more than two years old.”

Palestinian Prime Minister Muhammad Shtayyeh stressed today (Saturday) the importance of working towards reviving the Arab peace initiative to end the Israeli occupation and establish a Palestinian state on the 1967 borders, with East Jerusalem as its capital.

This came during his meeting in the city of Ramallah with a delegation from the World Federation of Socialist Youth, according to a statement issued by his office, a copy of which was received by Xinhua News Agency, where he briefed them on the developments of the Israeli situation and measures against the Palestinian people.

Shtayyeh praised the advocacy campaigns for "our Palestinian cause and the legitimate rights of our people, the importance of the visits of international delegations to Palestine, and viewing the conditions on the ground to learn about the reality of the occupation and the suffering it causes to our people."

The Arab Peace Initiative was launched in 2002, after it was formulated by Saudi Arabia and adopted by the League of Arab States. It stipulates the establishment of normal relations with Israel after its withdrawal from the occupied Arab and Palestinian territories since 1967.

In this context, the Secretary-General of the United Nations, António Guterres, expressed his regret at the continuation of the fighting while “the country is collapsing,” according to what he said in a statement to the Saudi news channel, Al-Arabiya.

The two parties to the conflict exchange accusations of violating the armistice, which was extended for three days under international mediation, and ends Sunday at midnight (22:00 GMT).

Residents trying to flee or staying in their homes suffer comprehensive crises, with water and electricity cuts and food shortages.

"We woke up again to the sounds of warplanes and anti-aircraft guns all over the neighborhood," a resident of southern Khartoum told AFP.

Another witness confirmed that the fighting has been going on since dawn, especially around the headquarters of the public television channel in the suburb of Omdurman, north of Khartoum.

And the Sudanese Doctors Syndicate announced that 70% of the health facilities in the areas close to the fighting sites are out of service, and many of them are under bombardment.
The two warring generals exchanged accusations through the media on Friday.

On the American Al-Hurra channel, Al-Burhan described the RSF as a "militia that seeks to destroy Sudan," stressing the influx of "mercenaries" from Chad, the Central African Republic and Niger.

As for Daglo, for his part, he spoke on the "BBC" channel about his opponent, describing him as a "traitor," considering that he is "not trustworthy."

In 2021, Al-Burhan and Daglo overthrew their civilian partners, after sharing power with them since the fall of President Omar Al-Bashir in 2019.
However, differences soon emerged between them and escalated, the most prominent of which was the conditions for integrating the Rapid Support Forces into the army, before it developed into an armed conflict on April 15th.

Since then, evacuations have continued, and on Saturday, a ship carrying about 1,900 people of different nationalities arrived in Jeddah, in western Saudi Arabia. And Saudi Arabia announced that, in total, about 4,879 of its citizens and citizens of 96 other countries had been evacuated through the Kingdom.
Mehrdad Malekzadeh, 28, who grew up in Sudan, was one of the first Iranians to be evacuated on Saturday. In Jeddah, he described to AFP the daily shelling and explosions in Khartoum, saying, "We never imagined that the situation would become so tense."

The World Food Program expects millions more people to face hunger in one of the world's poorest countries, where nearly a third of Sudan's 45 million people needed food assistance before the war broke out.

In West Darfur, at least 96 people have been killed since Monday in El Geneina, according to the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights, which described the situation as "serious".

Looting, destruction and arson are increasing, including inside camps for the displaced, according to Doctors Without Borders, which was forced to "stop almost all of its work in West Darfur" because of the violence, according to the organization's deputy director in Sudan, Sylvain Peron.

In a statement, Peron warned that his organization is "very concerned about the impact of violence on those who have already suffered waves of violence."

The Darfur region witnessed a bloody war that began in 2003 between the Bashir regime and rebels belonging to ethnic minorities, killing 300,000 people and displacing 2.5 million others, according to the United Nations.

On Saturday, 65 Iranians among about 1,900 people who were evacuated from Sudan, which has been witnessing battles for two weeks, arrived on a Saudi ship to the city of Jeddah, and they are the first group of Iranians transferred by the Kingdom since the evacuation began.

Riyadh has organized several evacuations from Sudan, which have so far included about five thousand people, who are Saudis and citizens of more than 96 nationalities, according to the Saudi Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

The evacuation of the Iranians comes in the midst of the rapprochement between Riyadh and Tehran since the two most prominent regional powers announced an agreement to resume their relations on March 10, after a seven-year break.

Iranian diplomat Hassan Zarnarkar Abarqoi, who was receiving the Iranians at the King Faseel Naval Base in Jeddah, told AFP that the group of 65 Iranians was the "first" to be evacuated from Sudan.

For his part, Iranian Mehrdad Malekzadeh (28 years old), who was among the arrivals from Sudan, said, "Frankly, we never imagined that we would come to Saudi Arabia when we would be evacuated because of our nationality."

"Fortunately, they really helped us out, put their differences aside and worked together, they saved lives," added the young man, who has lived since his childhood in Khartoum, where his family ran a lubricating oils company.

Zarnarkar Abarquoi thanked Riyadh for its cooperation, considering it "an indication of consular cooperation between the two countries as well as humanitarian cooperation."

Battles broke out in Sudan on April 15 between the army, led by Lieutenant General Abdel Fattah al-Burhan, and the Rapid Support Forces, led by Lieutenant General Muhammad Hamdan Dagalo, known as Hamidti, who was an ally of al-Burhan and deputy commander of the army before they became rivals.

The fighting killed at least 512 people and injured more than four thousand, according to official figures, but the toll is likely to be higher than that, and put the health care system under enormous pressure to deal with an increasing toll of casualties. Many are now facing severe shortages of water, food, medicine and fuel, in addition to the lack of electricity and the Internet.

On Saturday, the Saudi Ministry of Foreign Affairs announced the arrival of 20 Saudi citizens to the city of Jeddah, in addition to 1,866 people of more than 65 nationalities.

The Iranians were received in Jeddah by four Iranian diplomats, bearing in mind that diplomatic missions have not yet been officially opened.

In response to a question in this regard, Zarnarkar Abarquoi said that embassies will reopen their doors "as soon as possible."

The Saudi-Iranian agreement reached last month under the auspices of China provided for the reopening of the embassies of each country to the other in mid-May.
