Egypt's central bank implemented its first interest rate increase since March 2024, per Reuters. The move signals the bank's effort to stabilize inflation amid ongoing economic pressures.

The decision follows a series of monetary adjustments aimed at managing currency fluctuations and controlling price surges in key commodities, Bloomberg reports.

Meanwhile, regional diplomacy tensions persist as Turkey seeks to strengthen ties with Cairo, potentially at Greece's expense, per the MEForum. Analysts suggest this reflects broader geopolitical shifts in the Eastern Mediterranean.
