World News
A community for discussing events around the World
Rules:
-
Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
- Post news articles only
- Video links are NOT articles and will be removed.
- Title must match the article headline
- Not United States Internal News
- Recent (Past 30 Days)
- Screenshots/links to other social media sites (Twitter/X/Facebook/Youtube/reddit, etc.) are explicitly forbidden, as are link shorteners.
-
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.
-
Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed. Sources that have a Low or Very Low factual reporting rating or MBFC Credibility Rating may be removed.
-
Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.
-
Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF 10/19
-
Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
-
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
-
Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

This article lists another website as its source. That website is in arabic. I ran the source article through a translator and found:
I couldn't find a link to the WSJ article listed, so I can't be positive which article they're referencing, but I'm confident it's this one based on context clues like date and subject matter. Unfortunately, I can't confirm the arabic source's claims with WSJ since I am poor, impoverished, and also not doing well financially. So 🤷♀️ I guess.
Sure does give impressions of hearsay though.
A) Thank you for this research.
B) Link to WSJ article.
Thank you for the link. Below is the excerpt in question.
This is what I get when I ran the Arabic article through a translator. We must have chosen different articles.
Reports: Egypt threatened to suspend the peace agreement with Israel
Dubai - Mahmoud Abdel Razek - Egypt renewed its “complete rejection” of any military operation in the city of Rafah, warning of “serious consequences” that might result from that, according to a statement issued by the Egyptian Ministry of Foreign Affairs on Sunday.
Egypt affirmed in the statement that it “will continue its contacts and movements with various parties, in order to reach an immediate ceasefire, implement the truce, and exchange prisoners and detainees.” The Egyptian Ministry of Foreign Affairs called on influential international powers to intensify pressure on Israel to respond to these efforts, and to avoid taking measures. It increases the complexity of the situation, and causes harm to the interests of everyone without exception.” The Egyptian threat to suspend the Camp David Accords, which has represented the cornerstone of stability between the two countries for nearly half a century, came after the Israeli Prime Minister announced that he had ordered the army to prepare for a military operation in the city Rafah. The prominent Egyptian parliamentarian and media personality, Mustafa Bakri, had previously warned of the danger that might happen to the peace agreement between Egypt and Israel, due to Israel’s practices.
More than half of Gaza's population of 2.3 million people were displaced to Rafah to escape fighting in other areas, and were crowded into sprawling camps and UN-run shelters near the border. Egypt fears that thousands of Palestinian refugees will flow into its territory, while relief groups have warned that the attack The Israeli movement will exacerbate the already catastrophic humanitarian situation. The Palestinian Hamas movement said that any attack in Rafah would “blow up” the talks brokered by the United States, Egypt and Qatar regarding the exchange of hostages held by Hamas in Gaza and Palestinian prisoners.

Can confirm- that's definitely a different source than the one I had translated.
