Lexisnexis® Academic: Delivery Status 24 of 149 DOCUMENTS The Jerusalem Post June 4, 1989, Sunday ISRAELI FISHERMAN SHOT BY EGYPTIAN NAVY PATROL BYLINE: By MICHAEL ROTEM and MENACHEM SHALEV SECTION: News LENGTH: 544 words HIGHLIGHT: An Israeli fisherman was seriously wounded yesterday afternoon as an Egyptian naval boat opened fire on his small craft. Shlomo Yisraeli, 42, went fishing off Taba, along with his son and a friend. They were approached by an Egyptian naval vessel in mid-sea and ordered to stop. An Israeli fisherman was seriously wounded yesterday afternoon as an Egyptian naval boat opened fire on his small craft. Shlomo Yisraeli, 42, went fishing off Taba, along with his son and a friend. They were approached by an Egyptian naval vessel in mid-sea and ordered to stop. For reasons that are still unclear, Yisraeli refused and the Egyptians fired a few warning shots in the air. Yisraeli still did not stop and the Egyptians then fired a few more rounds, wounding him in the hip and causing profuse bleeding. The Egyptians tried to tow the fishing boat to Taba but Yisraeli's son, Rami, refused to let them tie up to their boat. The police spokesman said Yisraeli was equipped with all the permits needed for fishing in the area and had notified local authorities before setting sail. Jerusalem is taking a very grave view of yesterday's shooting incident in the Gulf of Eilat and is expected to lodge a strong protest with Egypt after Cairo clarifies the details of the incident. Officials in Jerusalem said last night that while Cairo may have a legitimate grievance against Israeli yacht-owners, Israel cannot accept the resort to such extreme measures. The officials expressed confidence that the Egyptian inquiry would reveal that the shooting was initiated at a very low level, and that it would be roundly condemned by Egyptian authorities. The fishing boat docked at the Israeli coast north of Taba where the fisherman received first aid and transfusions before being taken to Josephthal Hospital, where he was operated on for torn blood vessels and a fracture of the hip. Both the IDF military liaison team as well as the embassy in Cairo have asked Egyptian authorities to investigate the incident, which officials in Jerusalem yesterday described as "a very serious matter." Navigation and fishing rights off the Sinai Coast have long been a source of friction between the Egyptian Navy and Eilat-based shipowners, but yesterday was the first time that the Egyptians opened fire in order to assert their rights over the area. In talks between Israeli and Egyptian officials in Cairo in April, the Egyptians pledged they would prevent further incidents of Egyptian coast guard boats ramming Israeli vessels. Cairo allows Israeli vessels to enter its territorial waters off Sinai only through the port of entry at Sharm el Sheikh, and does not allow any fishing without a specially-issued permit. The Egyptian military liaison unit last night provided an account of the incident which was at great variance with the Israeli version of events. According to the Egyptians, the vessel had been sailing ten kilometres south of Coral Island, only 20 metres away from the coastline. According to the Egyptian version, the naval ship had sounded its horn to warn the Israeli ship away, and Egyptian sailors said that they had seen the Israelis throwing unidentified objects into the water. The Egyptians said that they had only fired warning shots into the air, and that to the best of their knowledge, no one had been injured in the exchange of fire. Israeli officials expressed surprise at the Egyptian version, and said that they expected a fuller and more accurate account to be provided today.

  • Egypt – Country Report
    GLOBAL EVALUATION OF FISHERIES MONITORING CONTROL AND SURVEILLANCE IN 84 COUNTRIES EGYPT – COUNTRY REPORT GANAPATHIRAJU PRAMOD IUU RISK INTELLIGENCE Policy Report - Volume 1 Number 1 © Pramod Ganapathiraju APRIL 2018 SUMMARY This evaluation of Fisheries Monitoring Control and Surveillance report for Egypt is one of 84 such country evaluations that covers nations landing 92% of world’s fish catch. Using a wide range of interviews and in-country consultations with both military and civilian agencies, the report exemplifies the best attempt by the author(s) at evaluation of MCS compliance using 12 questions derived from international fisheries laws. The twelve questions are divided into two evaluation fields, (MCS Infrastructure and Inspections). Complete details of the methods and results of this global evaluation would be published shortly through IUU Risk Intelligence website. Over a five-year period, this global assessment has been subjected to several cross-checks from both regional and global MCS experts familiar with compliance aspects in the country concerned. Uncertainty in assigning each score is depicted explicitly through score range. However, the author(s) are aware that gaps may remain for some aspects. The lead author remains open at any time to comments, and revisions will be made upon submission of evidence where necessary. Throughout the report, extreme precaution has been taken to maintain confidentiality of individuals who were willing to share information but expressed an inclination to remain anonymous out of concern for their job security, and information from such sources was cited as ‘anonymous’ throughout the report.

  • The Ligthouses of Alexandria
    AAHA = Amicale Alexandrie Hier et Aujourd'hui Yasser AREF The Lighthouses of Alexandria "Let there be light" Ras El Tin Lighthouse Cahier No 63 April 2010 Sandro Manzoni, chemin de Planta 31, 1223 Cologny, Suisse The Lighthouses of Alexandria Cahier AAHA Nr 63 The Lighthouses of Alexandria “Let there be light” 1 Yasser G. Aref 2 Introduction Alexandria is one of the oldest cities in the Mediterranean. The city had a crucial role in shaping the history of the Mediterranean. Alexandria is also famous for its legendary lighthouse, the Pharos, one of the seven wonders of the ancient world. The lighthouse stood on the small Pharos Island for almost 13 centuries. Even though the Pharos collapsed its legend and fame still survives. Pharology, which is the science of designing lighthouses, is named after the Pharos. The great lighthouse of Alexandria caught the attention of travellers, historians and the like. Even today its reputation and fame overshadow the other lighthouses of Alexandria. This paper aims to study the other lighthouses, the ones that are lesser known but have marked the coast of the city for more than a hundred years. This research will trace the history and architecture of the lighthouses of Alexandria, their role in shaping the city’s waterfront, their characteristics and their lighting technology. Why Study Lighthouses? - The fame and legacy of the great Pharos of Alexandria has put other lighthouses of the city in the shade. - The last study about the lighthouses of Alexandria was conducted in 1912 by Gaston Jondet and B. Malaval. Since then there has been very little research about these unique structures.

  • Background Migrant Profile
    COUNTRY MARCH BRIEF 2018 EGYPT The increase in the numbers of migrants, refugees and asylum seekers traveling in mixed migratory movements constitutes a major political and humanitarian challenge. North Africa is affected by such movements as a region of origin, transit and destination. European restrictions on inward regular migration processes has contributed to the rise of irregular migration flows.1 These restrictions have forced those on the move to find other ways to reach European shores, which, has resulted in a surge in the activities of organized transnational criminal networks operating smuggling and trafficking rings across the region. Migrants continue to face abuse and exploitation at the hands of these smugglers and traffickers who promise passage across the Mediterranean Sea and national borders. These movements are driven by those who are fleeing war and searching for security; those looking for better opportunities and future; Geographic proximity and historical ties have also contributed as drivers for North Africans to migrate to Europe (particularly those from Morocco, Algeria, and Tunisia) and to the Gulf countries (particularly those from Egypt and Sudan).2 BACKGROUND Because of its central position in the MENA region, Egypt has been part of multiple regional migration flows. Over the last years, to deal with these flows, Egypt has put the stress on combatting human trafficking and irregular migration, by prosecuting and enacting more severe sentences for traffickers. Since 2016, the National Coordinating Committee on Combatting and Preventing Illegal Migration and Trafficking in Persons (NCCPIM&TIP) has acted as the focal point for irregular migration and trafficking issues, and the coordination of governmental efforts in Egypt.
