Kerry, speaking in Bogota on Monday, sought to neutralise the atmosphere, noting that the settlement plans were "to some degree expected," and calling for both sides to resolve their major issues. "We have known that there was going to be a continuation of some building in certain places, and I think the Palestin- ians understand that," he said. Kerry said he did not expect the latest developments to become a "speed bump," but he reiterated that the United States regards all settlements as illegal. "Once you have security and borders solved, you have resolved the question of settlements. And so I urge all the par- ties not to react adversely or to provoke adversely, whichever party may do one or the other in any way," he said. Israel meanwhile was preparing to release 26 veteran Palestinian prisoners ahead of Wednesday's talks, reportedly to begin in the early hours of the morn- ing. Israeli public radio said that the 26 had been moved to Ayalon prison, in Ramle near Tel Aviv, where they had under- gone "security checks" prior to their release.

The radio said that police and prisons service vehicles were rehearsing their route from Ramle to the West Bank crossing near Ramallah where they are to be handed over to Palestinian author- ities.

By Simon Martelli – CAIRO - Egypt's shattered economy was boosted this dhCê±bC week by Gulf allies pledging billions of dollars in aid, but analysts say this HAMZEH PHARMACY simply buys time as political turmoil deepens its economic malaise.

MOHAMMAD * NANCY But dire security problems and political instability does not help a return of the tourists and foreign investment that Egypt so desperately needs are a distant prospect. And progress remains stalled on negotiations with the International Monetary Fund on a $4.8-billion loan. "Even if they do agree on the loan, I just don't believe that we're going to see a flood of investment," said financial analyst Andrew Cunningham. "The country has been in turmoil since 2011, there's just been a military coup and they're shooting people on the streets. This is hardly an attractive prospect." Gulf pledges of financial assistance are a lifeline for the new administration. Foreign reserves have fallen by almost 60 percent since the revolution that toppled Hosni Mubarak in February 2011, to 14.9 billion dollars in June -- the equivalent of just three months of imports. Kuwait offered $4 billion in cash, loans and fuel, with Saudi Arabia contributing $5 billion and the United Arab Emirates another $3 billion.

Three of the Arab world’s brightest musical talents are joining forces for a special, one-night only Eidfest concert at du Forum on Abu Dhabi’s Yas Island on August 10. The star-studded, fully-seated indoor concert, part of the emirate’s 52-day SummerFest Abu Dhabi celebrations, will see the best of Lebanon, Saudi Arabia and the UAE unite for a three-hour musical extravaganza to mark Eid Al Fitr, the end of the Holy Month of Ramadan. Lebanese songstress and revered opera star, Yara, kick-starts proceedings with a hit-laden 45-minute set. Legendary Saudi Arabian, Rabeh Saqer, is next on stage with a 45-minute set featuring the biggest musical numbers from his celebrated 30-year career, including ‘Sahratna Al Laila’ – one of the father-of-four’s all-time classics. Finally, UAE superstar, Hussain Al Jassmi, a much-loved favourite around the Arab world and a popular judge on X-Factor Arabia, will perform an hour-long headline set featuring the biggest hits from four best-selling albums. “This year’s SummerFest Abu Dhabi is our longest seasonal extravaganza to date and we wanted some- thing special to usher in Eid Al Fitr,” said Sultan Al Muhairi, Manager, Sum- merFest Abu Dhabi. “Having three of the biggest names in regional music certainly perform a one-off concert in the air-conditioned du Forum featur- ing provides that. Music fans can expect a night of world-class performers singing classic after classic.” With doors opening at 8pm, there are three ticket categories for the EidFest concert: VIP at AED495 (US $132), Pre- mium at AED350 (US $ 93) andA Reserve at AED200 (US $ 53).
