Egyptian Foreign Minister Badr Abdelatty and his Turkish counterpart, Hakan Fidan, recently announced a complete alignment of their positions on the Sudanese war.

Egypt’s tightly controlled 2025 parliamentary elections were engineered to produce a loyal, opposition-free legislature that can secure constitutional amendments enabling head of the regime Abdel Fattah el-Sisi to extend his rule beyond 2030.

As the US moves to finalize two key elements of Trump’s second-phase plan for Gaza, the shape of “the day after” in Gaza is coming into focus, and it may not be what the Israeli Occupation hoped for.

Tensions along the Egypt- “Israel” border rise amid Israeli claims of drone smuggling and militarization, while Egypt stays restrained due to security, internal stability, and reliance on international partners, despite holding leverage over “Israel.”

Plans to form an international force to stabilize Gaza after the war remain unclear, as its mandate, oversight, and operations have yet to be defined.
