Note that LBCI is quite biased against Hezbollah and has Saudi funding.

Might be important to keep in mind.

⚡️🇪🇬🇵🇸 Egypt yet again reaffirms that it rejects Israel's request for its forces to enter the city of Rafah and the Philadelphia axis - stating that the Egyptian government has indeed received such a request on the 27th of January, and has rejected it.
